New Dawn Fades - A Play About Joy Division & Manchester

A vibrant new production touring the UK. The play tells the story of four ordinary lads who, inspired by the punk revolution of 1970s Manchester, came together to form one of the most influential bands of all time, Joy Division. Following the untimely death of lead singer Ian Curtis, the band went on to huge world-wide success as New Order.

A spellbinding journey of love, passion, grief, and of course music, drawing inspiration from the enigmatic lyrics of Ian Curtis, with a soundtrack featuring iconic hits of the late 1970’s UK music scene including of course Joy Division.

A smash hit when it debuted at the Greater Manchester Fringe Festival in July 2013, New Dawn Fades has continued to wow audiences across the country, playing to capacity crowds and standing ovations.

PLUS, join us before the show to see a collection of Joy Division Equipment and Ephemera, featuring original Joy Division and Martin Hannett equipment, vinyls and posters as well as a replica of Ian Curtis’s famous Vox Phantom VI Special Guitar.
