FAILURE IS ALWAYS AN OPTION
SUNDAY 6th OCTOBER
2:00pm
A forty-five minute sketch show involving comedy, drama and music; all exploring the theme of failure. Failure is Always an Option examines the expectations placed on us by ourselves, society and social media; and the role hope plays in setting us up for failure – and why failure carries such a stigma in the first place. The show was created with the intention of making the audience feel less alone.
Written and performed by Desiree Munro. Music by Jude Perl.
Presented by Front & Centre as part of SPRING SEASON 2019.
