Groomed

Written and Performed by Patrick Sandford
Directed by Nancy Meckler
Music Composed by Simon Slater
Originally Produced by Ingenious Purpose


HOW CAN A TRUTH BE TOLD?
HOW CAN A SECRET BE SPOKEN?

A betrayed schoolboy, a Japanese soldier and the inventor of the saxophone. Three gripping narratives show how a story can save your life.

The media are really only interested in celebrity and sensation. As an antidote, one adult tells the truth without melodrama, without self-indulgence, with no simple answers and without fear.

This is bold and provocative theatre, telling truly gripping stories with a complexity of emotions, rich, revealing and profoundly human.

GROOMED won Fringe Review Outstanding Theatre Award, The Fringe Guru Brighton Fringe Awards for Theatre and The Bobby: Best of the Festival awards at Brighton Fringe 2016.
