PROFORCA THEATRE COMPANY IN ASSOCIATION WITH CHEWBOY PRODUCTIONS AND THE LION & UNICORN THEATRE ARE PROUD TO PRESENT
BEFORE FEEL
WRITTEN BY JAMES LEWIS | DIRECTED BY DAVID BRADY
“9.3 million people, all of us. Rushing through the same tunnels and sharing the same sky. 9.3 million people, and me…”
Life passes Alex by. Sitting on the same platform day after day. Counting the days, counting the minutes, counting the steps. Watching a world of people pass them by.
Waiting for a train that never comes.
But then was this one day, a Tuesday, when everything seemed to change. The day the train got cancelled. The day Alex changed their mind.
Because nothing good ever happened on a Tuesday.
Did it?
Before Feel is performed by Proforca Theatre Company Associate Artist
Lauren Ferdinand.

BY YOUR SIDE
WRITTEN BY JAMES LEWIS | DIRECTED BY DAVID BRADY
4am’s the absolute worst, it really is. Andy is forced to confront a life not lived and what happens when someone you loved leaves you way too soon.
By Your Side is a brand-new piece of writing about loving and never letting go, and what happens when we do too much of one and not enough of another.
Content Advisory: Contains Strong Language, Adult themes and discussions of grief and bereavement.
By Your Side is performed by Critically-Acclaimed, Award Nominated Lion & Unicorn Theatre Associate Artist Kieran Dee.

PRAISE FOR “BEFORE FEEL / BY YOUR SIDE”
★★★★★ - “What could so easily be just two short monologues on the drudgery of London living, of feeling lost and alone in a crowded city, are instead two pieces of wonderful writing and performances. (Lauren) Ferdinand delivers us an upbeat glimpse of her life as she decides today is going to be different, whilst (Kieran) Dee breaks our hearts as he laments not living for the moment and appreciating the little things. These are themes that writer James Lewis does so well, taking the mundane and bringing them to wonderful multi-coloured life.” - EVERYTHING THEATRE
Running Time 35 Mins.
