We’ve been working our socks off for just under two years to bring award-winning play On Me back to the stage – and now, thanks to the support of Trafford Council and their Community Safety Partnership, we’ve landed a date at the wonderful Waterside Arts in Sale.
We’ll be there on 2nd May 2024 from 7.30pm.
Tickets are available on a Pay What You Can basis, with £5, £10 and £15 options available, and they’re already selling – so grab yours while you can!

TRIGGER WARNING: On Me deals with themes of s*xual assault/r*pe, domestic violence, stalking and femicide
About the play
On Me by Caroline Lamb is an hour-long play focusing on the challenges of being a role model, ally, spontaneous romantic and potential victim all at once when chasing love in the post #MeToo era. The piece follows Shona and Christian, two up-and-coming actors who have been hired to work on a true crime docudrama. As filming progresses, their feelings for each other grow – along with fear, self-doubt, frustration and a creeping sense of danger.
In 2022, our production of On Me won the Off West End “OFFfest” award for its run on the Greater Manchester Fringe. The play was also shortlisted for the Write for the Stage prize for New Writing and the Greater Manchester Fringe award for Best Drama.
Upcoming event
Our performance at Waterside Arts in Sale will be followed by a short break, after which we will host a panel discussion featuring academics and frontline charity workers, as well as members of our creative team. The discussion will focus on the impact of Gender-Based Violence on communities and the work that is currently being undertaken to combat this very urgent issue. There will also be an opportunity for audience questions.
In order to provide support and signposting to audience members who have been affected by the themes of the play – and to highlight their vital work in the local community – representatives of Trafford-based charities will also be in attendance. Audience members will have the option to donate to these charities when booking tickets, or in person at the venue on the night.
We’re absolutely thrilled to be back with this exciting piece. Grab tickets while you can!
