People, Places and Things

Macmillan doesnt shy away from difficult questions about addiction and recovery and, rightly, doesnt answer them ... this is a bold, timely and searching play - Financial Times Emma was having the time of her life. Now shes in rehab. Her first step is to admit that she has a problem. But the problem isnt with Emma, its with everything else. She needs to tell the truth. But shes smart enough to know that theres no such thing. When intoxication feels like the only way to survive the modern world, how can she ever sober up? People, Places & Things premiered at the National Theatre in 2015 before transferring to Londons West End and St. Anns Warehouse in New York. Published for the first time in Methuen Drama's Modern Classics series, this edition features a brand new introduction by Naomi Obeng. See more
