Bright Places

About us

I was 23 when it came crashing into my life; without warning, when everything was going so well, just when I was really, really happy.

A three-woman, one-woman show about Multiple Sclerosis, MS for short, not to be confused with M&S or S&M.

With 90s pop, a costume box and a whole heap of glitter, Bright Places is a darkly funny and deeply honest autobiographical story about growing up in the shadow of chronic illness.

Partner & Funder Acknowledgement:

Presented by Carbon Theatre, in association with Birmingham Rep, and supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England. The play was originally commissioned by Birmingham Rep in 2020, with generous support from the Barry Jackson Trust.

We are proud to be working with charity partner, Shift.ms: the digital community for people with MS.
