First look rehearsal images are released for the world première of Rob Drummond’s Pins and Needles.
Artistic Director, Amit Sharma directs Vivienne Acheampong, Richard Cant, Gavi Singh Chera, Brian Vernel.
Rob is putting science and scepticism to the test in his new play. For research, he speaks to Mary, a mother trying to make the best decisions for her family, Toby, an angry son who distrusts institutions, and Edward Jenner, the father of modern vaccinations. The more he listens, the more he struggles to keep his own subjectivity off the table, which begs the question – how do you know who to trust?
Rob Drummond, whose plays are ‘utterly unpredictable’ (The Stage), explores the politics around vaccines, and the human stories behind them.
The production opens on 25 September, with previews from 19 September, and runs until 26 October.
