Scaffolding

Presented by Documental Productions
Sheridan is having a bad day. Her church is closing, Adult Social Care are on her case, and she cant work out which ingredients she needs to make a bomb. With no one else to turn to, she climbs the scaffolding around a leaking steeple with a few questions for Whoever Is In Charge.
Following a critically acclaimed run at Edinburgh Fringe, Scaffolding is an explosive new play about strength, love and community performed by Kerry Norton and directed by Natalie Simone. Award-winning writer Lucy Bell (Kevin Elyot and Ronald Duncan Awards) brings dark, car-crash humour in a dramatic collision between religious faith, the responsibilities of caring for loved ones with disabilities and the profound loss of shared community spaces in rural areas.
Originally developed in association with Bristol Old Vic, and with thanks to original director Lillian Waddington, producer Jessamie Edkins-O'Brien, actor Suzanna Hamilton and the original creative team.
This London run of Scaffolding is produced with support from Drayton Arms Theatre.
