We are inviting ten local* Crawley people to watch a theatre show Please Right Back by renowned company 1927 at The Old Market in Brighton.
We will travel to Brighton together from Crawley, watch the show and talk about what we experienced on the train journey back to Crawley.
About the performance
Kim and Davey’s dad, Mr E, has disappeared. When Mr E writes to his children to tell them what has happened, his imagination takes over. Reality collides with fantasy, as we travel on a fast-paced journey through his wild adventure stories. Mr E’s letters are staged using song, dance, and absurd, subversive animations, as his stories become a kind of game between him and his children – a cathartic release in the face of distress.
Please Right Back explores the difficulties children go through when a parent leaves the family while celebrating the power of the imagination to overcome hardship.
Part social realism, part science fiction with a healthy dose of mischief and a dash of dystopia, Please Right Back is a eulogy to the power of the imagination, storytelling and make-believe.
