★★★★ " a quirky, relevant, optimistic humanising play about the socially unseen" The Stage
Every Wednesday evening, Jimmy calls Kitty. For precisely nine minutes. At £1.20 a minute. Jimmy is 34, lives with his mum and works at Newport's only drive-through doughnut restaurant. Kitty is an adult chatline operator, living in the granny flat of a topiary enthusiast. It’s an unlikely connection, but for Jimmy, things are finally looking up. Then he loses his job. And starts to disappear - starting with his hands.
Funny, surreal and unexpectedly moving, Alan Harris’ How My Light Is Spent is a tender story about loneliness, desire and the need to be seen.
Following its critically acclaimed UK run, Secret House brings this quirky, charming and heartfelt story to Australian audiences for the first time.
