***** “a must-see play if ever there was one” Varsity

Can’t Stand Up For Falling Down follows the lives of three South-Yorkshire women and their tales of Royce Boland, a man who has a profound and devastating effect on all of their lives. In a near-lyrical exploration of women, love and survival, this performance offers a striking celebration of storytelling and solidarity through the often overlooked medium of monologues, allowing for a powerful and personal production. An immediate hit when it premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2011, this story of insecurity, family and domestic abuse unfolds as crimes of the past and present finally collide.
