Quartered: Belfast, A Love Story

Please arrive 10 mins before your event starts | Walking Tour

Funny, poignant and deeply human; Quartered: Belfast, A Love Story is an outdoor audio theatre walking tour that lets you see the city from a different perspective, making familiar streets seem brand new and allowing you to experience another side to Belfast.

Exploring the LGBTQ+ experience of Belfast, it opens a new conversation about how gender and sexuality inform and shape how we move through our city, and how our city moves through us.

What is the LGBTQ+ experience of Belfast? When the boundaries between quarters are drawn, who holds the pen? How much power do we give ourselves to shape the city we live in?

Written by Dominic Montague , directed by Paula McFetridge and voiced by Neil Keery.

Reviews:

‘I found Quartered to be a moving piece of promenade theatre, forcing me to look up from my own horizons to see Belfast as the canvass, the set, and listen to someone else’s story… a triumph’ – Alan in Belfast

‘ This is both an individual, and sadly, a universal story which penetrates deep into the consciousness. It remains lodged there as the days slip away, whispering, niggling, nudging a closer awareness of the streets, murals and buildings that one would unthinkingly have passed by’ -The Even Hand
