What we’re about
Hey - I just took the group over, and I'm going to post some fun events. They might be different from previous activities, but hopefully, some people will be inspired to come along. I know there was previously a WhatsApp group, but I don't have access to that so for the moment, we can just communicate on Meetup.

A description of the production is given below. It does sound intense, but also thought-provoking. I've bought a ticket for seat B7, so anyone wanting to join can just book alongside.

Northern Uganda. When Okumu’s village is attacked by the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA), he and his brother’s lives are changed forever.
Inspired by John Rwothomack’s own real-life experience of nearly being kidnapped by the LRA, Far Gone is a profoundly moving story of a young boy’s journey from childhood innocence to child soldier. Told with humour, poetry, and startling physical theatre, Okumu’s experience strikes straight at the heart through a powerful one-man performance.
The play was first performed in 2019 and following a highly successful national tour in 2022 co-produced by Sheffield Theatres, Far Gone returns this time to the global stage touring USA, Taiwan and South Africa with additional performances in Sheffield, Manchester and London.
