The Royal Exchange Theatre Young Company present

BRINK

WORLD PREMIERE

  • Written by Jackie Kay. Directed by Matthew Xia
  • 26 March 2015 - 29 March 2015
  • The Studio

What brings you to the brink? When you are so close to the edge - do you go forward or turn back? What happens if you cross over? Who are you on the other side? At a crucial point in your life, at the steep place, the threshold, the fork in the road, the turning point, did you move towards success or head for catastrophe?

It is make or break time on the brink. These are pivotal times. Vital days. Life offers you chances that bring you to the brink. Small changes. Big changes. Everything is possible when you are so close to the brink.

#RXYC #brinking

- On the Brink of something good
