    Not for the fainthearted, this ‘endearingly, recklessly look-no-hands bold’ (Lyn Gardner) tragicomedy ‘makes Fleabag look like CBeebies.’

    Memes, messages and music collide with a series of monologues so close to my actual life you could just be reading my diary. Obviously don’t actually read my diary though... boundaries, come on!

    Be prepared for DM sliding, TikTok dancing, social stalking and endless oversharing.

    Sad-Vents is ‘at once very raw and technically ambitious’ (The Guardian) using live streaming, projections and music to explore the hilarious and heartbreaking realities of mental health & trauma, in the age of social media, as it seeks to answer the ultimate question: do we consume it or does it consume us?

    “British theatre would be completely stymied without tiny, under-resourced venues such as CPT, which are a critical part of the theatre ecology.”
