Key Seeds: The Resurrection of Joy
Fri 2 MayProudly supported by Landmark Theatres Key Seeds Programme.
The Resurrection of Joy is the story of a working-class son’s journey to find the best way to celebrate his mum. It’s an exploration of memory, navigating challenges and survival through the darkest of times, of searching through the past to understand the present. It’s also a big old celebration of family do’s, knocking back a babycham, dancing with your aunties, of bingo at Butlins and bowls of scouse and the power of finding joy in life again.
About the Artist:
Alan is an emerging artist; this is his first solo show and work for theatre. During the 2020 lockdown he joined The Outsiders, an online writing group that gives voice to the unheard, and first performed his words with them at the Bournemouth Emerging Arts Festival in 2021. Since then, he’s joined the Troop Network, shared words at Scratch nights at the Cambridge Junction & Key Theatre. In 2022 he won the Stobbs New Ideas Award. Alan is supported by Peterborough Key Theatre, Metal Culture (Peterborough, Liverpool, Southend) & Cambridge Junction. He is very excited to be part of the Seed Commissions with Landmark Theatres.
