One normal street, three different people, one massive sinkhole.
Meet Mick, Poppy and Doreen. ‘King of the Street’ Mick yearns for the exhilaration of lost youth. Hoarder Poppy hides inside but would give anything to be seen. Hyper-vigilant Doreen is poised to leave, but can she let go?
A Street Like This takes us from the everyday to the extraordinary, in a music-filled theatre production that reminds us we’ve got more in common than divides us.
Written by Alison Carr (Until It’s Gone, Stellar Quines/Traverse Theatre, Finalist for the Women’s Prize for Playwriting 2022) and featuring original songs, co-written and performed by Ross Millard (The Futureheads), our community cast and the company, A Street Like This is an optimistic, fantastical and often funny insight into an ordinary life lived extraordinarily.
