A Joy Division Stage Play

Mary Anne is joined by writer, performer and artist Brian Gorman who is the man behind the graphic novel and stage play on Joy Division titled New Dawn Fades.

Mary Anne is joined by writer, performer and artist Brian Gorman who is the man behind the graphic novel and stage play on Joy Division titled 'New Dawn Fades'.

Mary Anne finds out about the inspiration behind the graphic novel which was penned and drawn entirely by Brian, and has been a decade in the making. This led to a stage play which debuted in 2013 in Macclesfield and received an outstanding response and continues to tour today.

Brian moved to Salford over a decade ago and was researching the history of the area only to find out that he lived two streets away from Peter Hook and Bernard Sumner. Spurred on by the history of Salford and Manchester, he then delved deeper into the Joy division story.

Brian's book and stage play explores the unique magic and alchemy of four ordinary lads who would change the face of the Manchester music scene.

'New Dawn Fades' return to Manchester's Dancehouse Theatre for two show on Wednesday the 11th and 12th of April, 2018.
