We presented our debut production, ‘Breathing Corpses’ and ‘Tommy’ at Norwich Theatre Royal’s Stage Two on the 1st and 2nd March 2019.
Wanting to start a discussion surrounding male mental health and suicide in the local community, we brought to the stage two stigma-breaking plays. ‘Breathing Corpses’, written by Laura Wade and ‘Tommy’, written by Sebastian Garbacz.
The double bill was met with large audiences and received great praise! Not only was the night a theatrical success, but we also collected over £100 in donations to Mind, the mental health charity.
