On Me with Post-Show Q&A

ABOUT THE PLAY

Actors Shona and Christian have just started working together on a true crime docudrama. Christian plays a cruel abuser-turned-killer. Shona plays his survivor. As filming progresses, their feelings for each other grow – along with fear, self-doubt, frustration and a creeping sense of danger.

On Me tackles the urgent themes of Gender Based Violence, female safety and the challenges of post-#MeToo relationships.

Stick around after the show for a 30 minute Q&A discussion with the creative team, plus spokespeople from local charities Fortalice and Endeavour and other experts addressing the issue of Gender-Based Violence.

Tickets are 'Pay what you can'. There is an option to select a ticket at each price point with an additional £2 donation, which will go towards charities Fortalice and Endeavour.

Content warning: Rape, sexual assault, physical abuse, stalking, death (specifically femicide references), sexism, coarse language, alcohol use.

Staff from Fortalice and Endeavour will be on hand throughout and after the show to support anyone affected by the themes of the play.
