Simon Stokes directs Simon Darven as Niall, Becci Gemmell as Helen, Tala Gouveia as Gemma and Andy Rush as Robby in Glenn Waldron’s dark and enigmatic comedy The Here and This and Now at Southwark Playhouse.
The play takes an intriguing and intelligent look at the medical industry and asks in these politically uncertain times, how high is the price of progress?
An office away-day. A newly recruited sales team for a pharmaceutical company learns the ropes. But does their work really make a difference? What exactly is the drug they are selling?
Change is swiftly coming and they asking all the wrong questions… Science and civilisation collide in Glenn Waldron’s darkly funny play. Fiendishly original, The Here and This and Now interrogates office workplace culture and the cataclysmic consequences of antibiotic resistance.
A former journalist and editor of i-D magazine, Waldron’s first play Forever House was also commissioned by Theatre Royal Plymouth and premiered at the Drum in 2013. Waldron’s Natives opened to great acclaim at Southwark Playhouse last year.
The Here and This and Now is at Southwark Playhouse 10th January – 10th February 2018.
