The Enby Show: Manchester!
The Enby Show is a chaotic gender-defiant performance collective bringing together the creme-de-la-thems of cabaret, creating variety shows popping with non-binary finery in solo and group spectaculars. We've performed up and down the country on stages big and small; from national Prides to basement bars, from West End stages to karaoke venues, we've graced all kinds of spaces with our enby excellence.
… and we're returning to Manchester BABY! Following our takeover of the Alan Turing stage during Manc Pride, this September you can catch us downstairs at The Brewers on the iconic Canal Street in Manchester.
Put on your best non-binary finery and prepare to experience enby envy like never before, in this show featuring the enbies themsleves: Carrot, Flick and Cyro with brand new numbers, plus a packed lineup of special guests to be announced, including…
- Tik-Tok sensation: Bailey Jaye Mills
- Burlesque icon and king of rhinestones: Mark Anthony
- Cabaret creature born of blasphemy and desire: Judas Darkholme
- Writer, performer and occasional cow: Mandla

TICKETS
Early bird and standard entry tickets may be standing tickets. There will be limited seats available, if you require a seat but cannot pay for a VIP ticket, see access info below. Aside from that, get there as soon as doors open to secure a seat!
Concession pricing is for anyone who believes they need to pay less, for example students, those on low income, or those accessing benefits. (Note: if you are struggling to a afford a ticket, see NOTAFLOF info in access section below for more info)
VIP tickets include a reserved table with the best view of the stage and a gift from us. The extra cost of the VIP tickets helps to subsidise NOTAFLOF (not turned away from lack of funds) tickets so please do consider purchasing a VIP ticket if you are able.
Limited tickets will be available on the door for £15, payments accepted by cash or card. Book in advance for cheaper tickets!
Pay-it-forward tickets are for people who cannot actually attend, but would love to support the show/the work we do at The Enby Show by buying a ticket anyway. This will also help subsidise free tickets for those who cannot afford to pay.

Doors open: 7pm

ACCESS INFO
The Brewers has gender neutral toilets, but is not wheelchair accessible and has a staircase down to get into the venue. This show will contain flashing lights, haze and loud music. Free +1 tickets are available for carers. If there is anything else we can do to make this event more accessible to you, please email theenbyshow@gmail.com.
This show is running a NOTAFLOF (not turned away from lack of funds) scheme. If you want to attend this event but are struggling to pay, please email theenbyshow@gmail.com with the subject line 'NOTAFLOF' and we will sort something for you - no questions asked or explanations needed.
There will be a ‘Care Bear’ in attendance at this event in charge of keeping it a safe space, so if you are thinking of going alone and want someone to chat to, or even just stand silently next to - find the person wearing bear ears! They are also there to help resolve any problems in the space - whether that's someone acting inappropriately, any issue with the show or venue, or if you find something triggering/need to talk something through, they are there to help you handle the situation with tact and care.
Please note The Enby Show is a safe space for all LGBTQ+ people and allies - come as you are, and you will be celebrated. However, transphobia (including misgendering), homophobia, racism, misogyny or any other form of hate speech will not be tolerated under any circumstances - and we reserve the right to ask disrespectful audience members to leave without refund.
