SICK! Festival 2015
SICK! Festival 2015 took place between 02/03/15 to 25/03/15, in Brighton & Manchester.
SICK! Festival confronts challenges that are sometimes rooted in bodies and minds that fail us, sometimes in the complexities of living as members of an imperfect society. In 2015 the festival programme had a particular focus on the issues of sex and sexuality, abuse and suicide.
