About the show
A brilliant new indie musical full of heart, humour and hope is set to visit Storyhouse this autumn as part of a world premiere UK tour.
Acclaimed playwright Siân Owen’s How Soon is Now? comes to the award-winning Chester cultural venue on Tuesday 6 and Wednesday 7 October 2026, with tickets costing from £21.30 for Storyhouse Members.
It’s New Year’s Eve 1997 in Manchester. The DJ is in full flow, and as your favourite indie songs blast out into the smoke-filled air of the club, the whole place feels electric.
Three girls are on the dancefloor. Polly and Angie are up for a big night; Jean is lost and alone. Change is in the air – New Labour, New Year, new millennium. After decades of grey, this should be their time. But as darkness falls and midnight arrives, will they find their light?
Celebrating Northern voices and set to a live soundtrack of 90s classics from the likes of The Stone Roses, Radiohead and The Smiths, How Soon is Now? is an indie musical about mates, music and magic – about finding your place and finding yourself.
