Overload Festival is now officially over -it's been an absolutely wonderful festival and we're sad to see it end. The show have been of an amazing quality and we're very glad to have put on this showcase and worked with such an amazing pool of talent from across all 3 years of Liverpool John Moores' Drama department!

Thank you to all who came to the shows with your outstanding support -as without you the shows could not go on. We at the publicity team would like to thank you personally, for liking and supporting the page as it is your collective liking, sharing, retweeting, mentioning to friends and family that has made the festival such a success. Thank you.

The Facebook and Twitter pages will remain up so people can revisit pictures from their favourite shows etc. but the website will be coming down in the immediate future.

There have been 20 performances from 4 venues across Liverpool in just under 4 weeks with 8 spectacular shows, this has been Overload 2014!

Well done to everyone involved on 'Covers Up' on 3 superb shows -it was a brilliantly honest, touching and funny piece! A great mixture of multimedia in the performance too with great direction. Also a big thank you to all of those came to see the performances, your support was much appreciated.

Last two performances of the entire festival today, 'Covers Up' had a brilliant reception last night, thanks to the wonderful audience who came to see it, and today is last chance you have to catch it. Firstly we have the half price ticket matinee at 2PM -with tickets from £1.50 before the final show-closing evening performance at 7.30PM. Showing at the Joe H. Makin Drama Theatre, Pilgrim St.

The only way to get tickets is to get them on the door, if still available. We hope you enjoy the show and break a metaphorical leg to the 'Covers Up' cast & crew!

Congratulations on a brilliant send off performance by the 'Wasting Efforts' cast & crew -certainly not a wasted opportunity. A superb show with a wonderfully driven narrative! Well done all involved and many thanks to those who came to see the show!

Tonight the final show of the festival 'COVERS-UP' (7.30PM START) will be opening at the Joe H. Makin Drama Centre as 'WASTING EFFORTS' draws to close at Haus (8PM). The show examines relationships and couples all confined to a bed. The performance uses multimedia & projection to bring to life the stories that reflect on who we are between the sheets.
