Audiences can climb aboard a custom-made double-decker theatre bus this month for new interactive show Rear View—where Blackpool becomes the stage.

The streets of the resort become the stage as IOU’s location-specific production begins in a life-drawing class and quickly becomes a moving story about a woman’s life.

Led by performance poets Cecilia Knapp and Jemima Foxtrot, Rear View brings together reflections, predictions and observations that blur the line between reality and fiction.

Rear View will be performed on July 13 to 15, created with the Yorkshire-based international theatre company.
