Description
Sophie and Calliope have never known school life. Raised in a series of unconventional communities, they've grown up surrounded by meditation, music, and free-spirited living. But when Sophie falls ill, their world is turned upside down as they return to Birmingham - a place where maths homework and TV are the norm.
As they navigate this unfamiliar landscape, Sophie must confront her own mortality and come to terms with the life she's never known. A poignant and powerful story of growing up, identity, and finding one's place in the world, Notes to Future Self is a moving exploration of what it means to be young.
First performed at the Birmingham Repertory Theatre in February 2011, this debut play by Lucy Caldwell has already made a significant impact on the UK theatre scene. Now available for purchase, Notes to Future Self is a thought-provoking and deeply human story that will resonate with anyone who's ever felt like an outsider.
