Playing like a frenzied scroll through a social media feed, the show takes the audience on an exhilarating and emotional journey through the characters’ lives. With seemingly disconnected pieces running into one another at speed, woven together with athletic physical delivery, thick skin, elastic heart showcases a kaleidoscope of voices from across the UK, tackling a myriad of topics and giving a voice to a generation often dismissed as ‘snowflakes’. This is Under Milk Wood for and by millenials, exposing the inner thoughts, fears and hopes behind the Instagram filters and the 280 character tweets. Suitable for age 16+
