A new solo show about home, belonging or not, and parenthood.

Storyteller Liz revisits her childhood memories and home in west Cumbria in attempts to understand whether she still belongs there, or ever did do. In this generational piece, Liz takes the audience on a journey through the rural landscape and environment of her home, reconnecting with voices from the past and with her young family now, but in doing so, unearths some more painful home truths. By the end, Liz and the audience discover a commonality she hadn’t set out to find.

'Local' will have audiences laughing and crying simultaneously, will feel familiar but unsettling. Visuals and sound help encompass Liz’s world in 1990s Cumbria.
 

'Local': our new show premieres in May 2025! Keep a look out for more information coming soon
