"Harry's Christmas was originally performed in 1985, yet the ideas explored within this complex and microscopic piece are more prevalent in the world that we currently live; the past two years have been extremely hard for us.
This alternative Christmas production examines the intensity of loneliness and isolation; huge, often unspoken, issues, that affect many people - especially now. There can be a shame which comes from saying you are lonely, as well as a guilt from being aware that you have not 'kept in touch' with someone.
Suicide isn’t festive, but with a rise in cases, we feel there is a need for continued awareness and discussion, especially at this time of year.
We know this might be a hard play to watch, but we hope
it will spark urgent and sometimes uncomfortable
conversations around often avoided dis-ease,
that are important to have."
