  • Characteristics of a Child Ten Days Old (WIP)

    Fri 11 Jul at 9pm
    Tickets £10 (+ booking fee)
    Two baby girls born 200 years apart, connected by a single chromosome.

    A new mother has arrived here - at Wordsworth's former home in the Lake District - to reckon with a very modern medical diagnosis.

    The snow falls, the power fails, and she's about to make the biggest decision of her life.

    Written by Beth Broomby

    Produced with the support of Camden People's Theatre, Paines Plough and Theatre by the Lake, and developed through Paines Plough's Tour the Writer programme in partnership with Theatre by the Lake.

    Tickets for Characteristics of a Child Ten Days Old (WIP)

    Fri 11 Jul, 21:00

    Tobi King Bakare and this theatre deserve a shout-out for such a young, diverse audience. There is so much talk about audiences being full of over 60s and why, why can’t theatres get the crowds in to reflect society in general? Well, I’m happy to say that on a rainy Thursday evening, the theatre was completely full.
