ONE OF BRITAIN'S FRESHEST NEW WRITERS COMES HOME...

TICKETS £10 AND £15

“FABULOUSLY SUSTAINED AND MORDANTLY FUNNY” LYN GARDNER, THE GUARDIAN ON HONEST

“A SUBTLE, BITING SATIRE ON THE STATE OF THE NATION” WHATSONSTAGE.COM ON HONEST

“So here I am, homeless at home and half-gratified to feel that I can be happy anywhere” John Clare

On John’s return to Northampton from the bright lights of London, he finds his hometown is exactly the same as when he left it – from the rooms at his parent’s house, to the Saturday nights on Abington Street. In fact, the only thing that seems to have changed… is John.

Slipping back into his old habits, old jobs and old relationships, John considers the reasons why his urge to come back took him on a sixty mile walk North, from the anonymity of corporate city life, to the comfort of home.

Following his critically acclaimed Honest for Royal & Derngate, Northampton writer DC Moore’s Town poignantly explores enduring themes of identity, isolation and belonging, rooting them in modern life. With heartbreaking honesty and humour, it explores the feelings that we all have about our hometown, and follows one man on his road to get back to where he started.
