Right Where We Left Us

Wed 28 September - Sat 1 , Mon 3 - Wed 5 October 2022
Seligman Theatre

“I thought I would be grafting and working on it.
Pursuing it until I breathed my last breath.
My ambition and drive was that concrete.
But ambition will…
Ambition will kill you.”

The spark is instant. Miles away from home they find each other. They were going to make it big, together.

Fast forward years later, a world reset and changed forever they return to where they left it. One an award-winning writer, the other adopting a child and putting faith in crystals.

The spark is still there, electric and dangerous. But how do you heal once you’ve been burned?

This lyrical and witty three-hander by Papatango-shortlisted, Cardiff playwright Rebecca Jade Hammond is a heartfelt examination of what happens instead of “happy ever after”.

The show is directed by Chelsey Gillard. She has recently been appointed as the Artistic Director of the Torch Theatre in Milford Haven.

”If Chippy Lane’s second production was to be summed up in one word, that word would almost certainly be ‘love’. Both on- and off-stage, love permeates through every nook and cranny.” Wales Arts Review

“Rebecca is pioneering opportunities for women writers from Wales to champion their abilities and break through the boundaries and stereotypes of writing they have previously been confined to.” The Cardiffian.
