A Place Called Happiness by Debs Gatenby at HOME in Manchester from January 26 to 28 is a comedic sequel to her acclaimed solo show Hi, Anxiety.
Debs shares the highs and lows of discovering happiness from a place within. Travelling to the remote Scottish Island of Eigg and Cape Cod, Provincetown, she began an experiment to discover the secrets of ‘how to be happy’, feeling more disconnected as she lost herself in wild landscapes. Documenting her experiences on film and audio, Debs explains what she found.
Also at HOME over the same dates, Who Wants To Live Forever is a jazz fantasy about loss, love and hope set among the stars, combining science fact, real-world psychological observation, and autobiography.
Created through monologue, Who Wants To Live Forever has been made by writer and performer Cheryl Martin and director/deviser Darren Pritchard.
