Hold Out Your Hand by Chris Thorpe
This is a fast-paced, truthful, funny and hopeful new play by Chris Thorpe. Reflecting on how weird the last few months have been. It’s a play that celebrates people being together in the same space and asks performers and audiences to reach out and seize what the future holds for them. This is a play about the gaps where young people's voices should be.
