Soho Socials: Groomed

Ever watched a brilliant show and come away with a thousand questions you wanted to ask them about how they put everything together?

Well here’s your chance. And, thanks to the wonders of Zoom, you can do it from the comfort of your own home.

Over the years we have had the opportunity to work with some of the best creative teams in the industry and film their shows for Soho Theatre On Demand and now you can watch the shows with us and take part in a Q&A after the show.

Each show will start at 8pm and be streamed via Zoom and afterwards we will then be joined by a member of the team to tell us more about the show and answer questions from everyone watching.

THE SHOW:

How can a Truth be told?

How can a Secret be spoken?

Combining three gripping narratives, a Japanese soldier who refuses to stand down, the inventor of the saxophone and the personal story of a betrayed schoolboy, Groomed pushes past sensationalist news headlines, and shows the lasting impact of abuse into adulthood.

Presented at Soho Theatre in 2017, the play won the Broadway Baby Bobby Award, Fringe Review Outstanding Theatre Award and the Fringe Guru Brighton Fringe Award for Theatre at the 2016 Brighton Fringe. In 2019 Groomed was powerfully reinvented as a film, shot entirely on location in a primary school classroom. Honest and provocative but never depressing, three poignant narratives are brought together to show how, when a story is told, it can save your life.

Zoom link will be sent out 30 minutes prior to show starting with details on how to log in.
