SICK! PRODUCTIONS

SICK! works with artists and marginalised communities to explore mental, physical and social challenges through art.

We develop year-round projects in social prescribing, community engagement, public realm work and digital, as well as a biennial festival.

MENOPAUSE BUS

Two composers, Tosin Akindele from Manchester and Sibylle Aeberli from Switzerland, have composed brand new songs, based on the experiences of people personally affected by the menopause.

We want to sing and shout at the top of our voices about a topic that many keep under wraps!

SOUNDPATHS

How well do you know your neighbourhood?

Whether you’re looking to explore, take a gentle stroll or go for an energetic run, Soundpaths takes the sounds and voices of the community and transforms them into an unforgettable atmospheric journey.

SMASH

SICK! Mental Health Arts Programme (SMASH), is our first creative social prescribing project offering creative and innovative experiences designed to improve how Moston, Harpurhey and Charlestown (North Manchester) participants feel and increase their understanding of mental health.

SICK Festival
Last night Paul was invited by our friends at Factory International to the launch of multi-sensory visual feast ‘Sweet Dreams’, by the award winning artist collective MARSHMALLOW LASER FEAST, exploring the surreal world of the fictional Real Good Chicken Company, that will be taking over Aviva Studios from 17 July - 1 September. Here’s Paul’s thoughts: ‘It was an immersive multimedia arts experience through the lens of a factory tour and led by the Real Good Chicken Shop mascot. They created a fully immersive world that pecked away at the seeds of capitalism. I would eat before you go, but probably not fried chicken.’��Book your tickets: shorturl.at/RLwok#SweetDreams ...
