Back For An Encore Performance

Duncan Macmillan's People, Places and Things returns to the West End for a limited run at the Trafalgar Theatre, offering you a chance to see Denise Gough's award-winning performance once more.

An absorbing drama centred around actress Emma and her attempt to escape dysfunction and addiction in rehab this co-production from The National Theatre and Headlong originally enjoyed a premiere at The National Theatre in 2014, before transferring to the West End and Broadway. A critic and audience favourite, don't miss this searing theatrical masterpiece.

What Is The Story?

Emma is having trouble making it past the first step. Rather than admit she dampens out the problems of the modern world with drink and drugs, she'd rather blame it on everyone else. Unrepentant and raging, she rallies against every attempt at help, until she realises it's up to her to rescue herself. Denise Gough is outstanding as this unpalatable anti-heroine, bowled over by the reach of her own excess and self-deniable.
