Lawrence Batley Theatre Creative Workshop and States of Verbal Undress ticket 22 May

Rose Condo at the Lawrence Batley Theatre sent me the following information about a creative writing workshop that I thought my followers would be interested in.  Unfortunately I am working on that day, so will be unable to attend, but if any of you attend, please let me know, as I would love some feedback/review of the event:

With a multiplicity of identities, this show takes a poignant, funny and insightful look at what happens when new identities slip. ‘a play to get you thinking’ MANCHESTER’S FINEST The creator of STATES OF VERBAL UNDRESS will lead a creative writing workshop which will explore personal histories and themes of migration through stories.
