Sixth House Theatre announced as Lowry’s new Resident Company (2025–2026)

We are delighted to announce Sixth House Theatre as a new Resident Company, joining us from September 2025 to September 2026.

Formed through Lowry’s Hothouse Artist Development programme in 2024, Sixth House is a collective of six dynamic, multidisciplinary artists – Natassa Argyropoulou, Pui-ka Cheng, Gabriel Clark, Samuel Tracy, Chloe Wade and Dan Willis – who are committed to making theatre that feels urgent, inventive and alive.

Their work blends performance, movement, original music and bold visual design, with a shared focus on stories that reflect the complexities, contradictions and beauty of contemporary life.

As Resident Company, Sixth House will develop and present new work at Lowry, as well as offering workshops, sharings and events that open up their process to other artists and audiences. The residency builds on our long-term commitment to supporting artists to experiment, grow and connect through their creative practice.

Antonia Beck, Senior Producer: Artist Development said:

“We’re so excited to continue our relationship with Sixth House Theatre, whose work speaks to urgent contemporary issues through interdisciplinary storytelling and inventive use of form. The collective embodies the spirit of collaboration, curiosity and experimentation that sits at the heart of our artist development programme.” 

Sixth House Theatre said:

“We’re thrilled to call Lowry our creative home for the next year. This residency gives us the time and space to explore bold ideas, collaborate deeply, and connect with artists and audiences in ways that will shape our work for years to come.”
