Is this a man's world? Would it be nothing without a woman, or a girl - Or a power ballad? Exploring the soundtrack to growing up through the eyes (and ears) of two northern lads who are still trying to figure it out. Curious Monkey in collaboration with Company TSU on Beats North, a double bill of new one man plays by Luke Barnes and Ishy Din, featuring Mariam Rezaei, directed by Amy Golding. The plays look at the way that we interact with music and how music is a soundtrack to our lives, explored through the eyes of two young northern men whose individual stories are seamlessly interwoven live on stage by award-winning scratch DJ Mariam Rezaei.
