Identities

Sat 14 Oct, 2023 Archive
Close To Home Productions proudly presents Identities: a play about boobs.

Happy boobs. Sad boobs. Naughty boobs. Scared boobs…Poorly boobs.

From bra fittings to breast cancer diagnosis, Lucy’s boobs tell her story in 60 minutes – the time it takes to perform a standard lumpectomy. Co-created with women who have experience of breast cancer and those who treat them, Identities unclasps the hidden adventures our boobs go on; the good, the bad and the silly.

After a successful 5* tour in 2022, Close To Home are thrilled to be touring the UK again with their debut play. Supported by Culture Warrington, Prevent Breast Cancer and Arts Council England.

POST-SHOW Q&A

After the 3pm performance of Identities there will be a post-show Q&A led by a Prevent Breast Cancer ambassador where the audience can ask any questions about the play, it’s content and the company. This will last approximately 30 minutes.
