Up Down Big Man
Advertisement
We are delighted to be working with Myrtle Theatre to bring you this wonderful production.
There comes a time in every young man’s life when he has to leave home. For Matty, it’s forty! He really is a big man. But with his mother gone - and his Dad moving on, what’s next for Matty? He needs support, but what is the best form of care for him? How can he be independent and safe?
And as he leaves the sanctuary of his house for the final time, is there space in the boxes for his most treasured possession?
Following the critical success of Up Down Boy (2012) and Up Down Man (2016) this standalone production is the third in a trilogy of plays inspired by the life story of the gifted and charismatic performer Nathan Bessell. In Up Down Big Man Nathan returns to play Matty in a play full of wit, anarchy and heart.
These dates are subsidised performances especially for Keynsham and District Mencap members, family and friends.
Age Guidance: 12+
