OBSESSED
A MAD FRIDAY PRODUCTION (IN DEVELOPMENT)
WRITER
The Lowry & Sick! Festival, Salford; May 2024 (R&D)
Megan has always been obsessed: an adolescence spent drooling over Zac Efron, Hunger Games movie marathons, and near encyclopaedic knowledge of all things Beyoncé and BTS.
But after moving back home at the height of the pandemic, other kinds of ‘obsessions’ make their way to the surface.
Obsessed is my semi-autobiographical debut play based on my own experiences living with OCD.
This brand-new work has been commissioned by The Lowry through its Artist Development Programme ‘Developed With The Lowry’ and is also supported by Arts Council England and Sick! Festival.
