Manic Street Creature Playtext

细节

There’s this unspoken thing right? I dunno . . . I guess, this resistance to admitting that someone else’s trauma can be traumatising . . .

Ria is a singer-songwriter. She’s talented. She’s ambitious. And she’s driven- quite literally- all the way from Lancashire to London, to start afresh in Camden Town.

Charting the rise and fall of a rollercoaster relationship, Ria is recording her debut album with her band. But the more the tracks progress, the more music and memory collide…

This soaring piece of gig theatre from Olivier Award winner Maimuna Memon brings a raw and powerful insight into first love, co-dependence and mental health care – but most of all, how music has the
power to help us start again.

This revised and updated edition was published to coincide with the critically acclaimed, multi award-winning return of Manic Street Creature at Kiln Theatre in March 2026.
