Description

Invisible illnesses. Puppets. A self-deprecating actor. Biscuits. All this can be found in the room upstairs, but can you handle the journey up? 'Heartbreaking yet incredible' **** (AdventuresInTheatreland.com). Both Lani and her mother have important plans on the 19th July; will the conflicting events result in a much-needed breakthrough or a medical cliffhanger? Based on the true story of Lani's upbringing as a young carer, Baloney's new show is genre-defying, featuring immersive audio, original compositions and one frustrated daughter. Laughter isn't just the best medicine, but often the only one that's available. Weekly livestreams available via www.facebook.com/BaloneyTheatre.
