COMMISSIONED BY CULTUE LIVERPOOL

in collaboration with PHELIM MCDERMOTT (IMPROBABLE)

She’s Leaving Home is a brand new show inspired by the legendary Beatles song and is part of Liverpool’s celebration of the 50th anniversary of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Researched and developed with young adults in Liverpool, the play will explore themes around home, housing and family.

Taking place in people’s living rooms in the Liverpool 8 area, She’s Leaving Home promises to be a breathtaking and intimate performance featuring local girl (and ex 20 Stories High youth theatre member) Brodie Arthur with puppetry by Zoe Hunter and music by internationally renowned cellist Semay Wu.

Expect something magical.

Suitable for ages 13+
