Jo and Harry are changing.
Harry is changing more than most, undeniably,
And change is beautiful. Necessary. Terrifying.
Break-ups aren’t just about who gets the CD collection. As Jo and Harry begin to untangle themselves from each other, new worlds start to open up – worlds filled with new partners, new identities, new possibilities. What kind of women do they want to be, and do they have the courage, or the permission, to get there?
From Chris Bush, the playwright behind the Olivier Award-winning Standing at the Sky’s Edge, and director and choreographer Ann Yee (Next to Normal; The Human Body), Otherland explores what it means to be true to yourself in the face of unstoppable change.
Cast: Jade Anouka, Jackie Clune, Danielle Fiamanya, Laura Hanna, Beth Hinton-Lever, Serena Manteghi, Fizz Sinclair and Amanda Wilkin.
