This month we are in for a special late Sunday afternoon treat at Belvoir, enabling our members who have weekday commitments to attend.

By Veronica Nadine Gleeson, based on the book by Anne Deveson
Directed by Leticia Cáceres

Anne’s life – the familiar juggle of marriage, career, emotions, chaos – is thrown off-balance when her son Jonathan begins speaking oddly, standing strangely, flashing into irrationality and rage. Is it just a phase, part of growing up? The years pass, and it’s clear, Anne’s son has been diagnosed with schizophrenia. But putting a name to it is one thing – getting attention, getting help is another. Even the strongest families, the most steadfast parents, buckle under such stress.

Heart-rending, exquisitely touching, a play which speaks things which normally aren’t spoken. A play about getting on with life, before it’s too late.

‘Tell Me I’m Here’ is the proud recipient of the Blake Beckett Trust Award.
