The revival of Duncan Macmillan’s acclaimed People Places and Things opens at Home Manchester next week, starring Lisa Dwyer Hogg.
Following a sold-out season at the National Theatre and in London’s West End, Jeremy Herrin directs People, Places and Things as its UK tour opens at Home Manchester.
People, Places and Things became the must-see show in London’s West End last year for its vivid portrayal of one woman’s entanglement in addiction, treatment and self-awareness. Emma was having the time of her life. Now she’s in rehab. Her first step is to admit that she has a problem. But the problem isn’t with Emma, it’s with everything else. She needs to tell the truth. But she’s smart enough to know that there’s no such thing. When intoxication feels like the only way to survive the modern world, how can she ever sober up?
