I was 23 when it came crashing into my life; without warning, when everything was going so well, just when I was really, really happy…
A three-woman, one-woman show about Multiple Sclerosis, MS for short, not to be confused with M&S or S&M.
With 90s pop, a costume box and a whole heap of glitter, Bright Places is a darkly funny and deeply honest autobiographical story about growing up in the shadow of chronic illness.
The show features embedded audio description and creative captioning.
Carbon Theatre presents the first UK tour of Rae Mainwaring’s award-winning new play, directed by Tessa Walker. Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
