To Bee Productions

We are a Manchester based and LGBTQA+ & working-class led company who tell stories through the art of cabaret.

Since 2022, we have produced critically acclaimed cabaret-style performances across the country that have blended storytelling, music, poetry and burlesque. We have been nominated for an Off Fest award for two consecutive years, as well as Best LGBTQA+ Production by Canal St Media and Queer Lit, we have also been supported by the Superbia Queer Arts Fund by Manchester Pride.

We aim to create a platform and network for early-career artists, offering accessible training in order to break barriers to the performing arts; particularly for those who are underrepresented and feel excluded from mainstream paths into the arts through artist development schemes, mentoring and workshops.
