Funny, poignant and deeply human Quartered: Belfast, A Love Story is a audio theatrical walking tour that lets you see the city from a different perspective, making familiar streets seem brand new, 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.

‘I found Quartered to be a moving piece of promenade theatre, forcing me to look up from my own horizons to see Belfast as t he canvass, the set, and listen to someone else’s story… a triumph’
