Threads is a poignant and powerful story about mental health, friendship, and identity, designed especially for young people aged 12 and up. Drawing on real stories from teens across the North of England, Coalesce Dance Theatre brings these experiences to life through an inspiring and emotional mix of contemporary dance and physical theatre.
Diving into the challenges of growing up and the importance of friendships and support when navigating adolescence, Threads shines a light on mental health and reminds us that none of us have to face difficult times alone.
