The Liverpool John Moores University Drama Department proudly presents the UPROAR Festival 2025!​A vibrant and celebratory festival where emerging artists raise their voices in the creative heart of Liverpool.​From 29th April – 9th May, join us as UPROAR’s artists transform The Joe H Makin Building, The John Foster Drama Studio, and the surrounding community into a hub of bold, imaginative expression.​With a diverse line-up of shows and an inclusive atmosphere, UPROAR provides a vital platform for emerging performers to tackle social issues and explore themes of identity, growth, relationships, and even procrastination. From original works to fresh adaptations, expect to laugh at our comedies, cry at our dramas, and leave buzzing with inspiration.​This year’s festival is particularly special as we bid farewell to the Joe H Makin building, a space that has nurtured creative minds for over 30 years. Join us in celebrating its legacy with performances that honour its history and the generations it has shaped.​At UPROAR, we believe theatre should be accessible to all. Whether you're a regular theatregoer or someone who only steps inside for a pantomime, there’s something here for you! And the best part? Tickets to all our shows are completely free — so why not experience the power of theatre for yourself?
