A new play which highlights the personal stories behind homelessness is to tour the North this autumn.
Parallel is a darkly comic drama from Black Toffee, which sees writer and producer Laura Lindsay join forces again with director James Baker. The pair enjoyed success with the musical Parade at Hope Mill Theatre in Manchester. Their previous productions together include The Rise and Fall of Little Voice, which won a Manchester Theatre Award earlier this year.
In Parallel, three women meet by chance late at night. None of them really want to be there, yet none of them leave.
It will tour five venues throughout November, playing Hope Mill Theatre in Manchester from November 1 to 5. It will then head to ARC in Stockton (November 9), Derby Theatre (November 11) and Lincoln Drill Hall (November 17-19) before concluding at Square Chapel in Halifax (November 24).
