What a week we had at the Millennium Forum for the 18th edition of InterAct! 🎭✨

It was a joy to see the building filled with so much creativity, energy and talent as young people from across the North West came together to sing, dance, act, create and make new friends.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part, our brilliant tutors, supporters and everyone who came along to cheer them on at Saturday's showcase. We can't wait to do it all again next year!
