About SECRETS

This epic new show is created by Icelandic artist Ásrún Magnúsdóttir in collaboration with an incredible collective of young Leeds based performers and artists. Original music gives voice to the unspoken worries and private lives of teenagers – from soulful melodies to electric and rousing rhythms.
