Home town writer goes back to his roots at the Royal and Derngate
Hometown season continues at Northampton venue.
TOWN, the new drama coming to the Royal & Derngate next week may be about Northampton but really it could easily be about Leighton Buzzard or any small town in England.
As part of the venue's Hometown season, local writer DC Moore's new play poignantly explores enduring themes of identity, isolation and belonging, rooting them in modern life.
On John's return from the bright lights of London, he finds his home town is exactly the same as when he left it. 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.
As with Ackbourn's Private Fears In Public Places last year the play will see its audience seated on the Royal stage for an intimate and up close theatrical experience.
Running from next Friday (June 18) until July 3.
