As part of Baff Akoto’s UP:RISE, Toxteth Rising is a newly commissioned digital performance by Blue Saint. Delving into the rich history of the area and the locals who inhabit.
Toxteth Rising shines a light on what makes this community so unique while interrogating its historic inequalities and contemporary marginalisations.
The performance piece will be released digitally on 21 August. Stay tuned to Bluecoat’s website and social media channels to watch.
