Theatre: Shmedic

Thursday 22 May 7.30pm - 9.00pm

McQueens Theatre, 4 Coburg Road N22 6UJ  

Thursday 22nd and Saturday 24th May at 7.30pm

In this raw and riveting one-woman play, we follow the journey of a young Welsh girl 'Shmedic', whose dream is as pure as it is urgent: become a doctor and save her little brother Chuk from his debilitating sickle cell disease.

But when a night shift from hell and an untimely encounter with a dead body render her unable to sleep, she finds that all dreams come with a wake up call...

We meet Shmedic mid-therapy session, guarded, reluctant and desperate to cover the cracks. Through a series of sound-fuelled flashbacks, we follow her journey through the harsh reality of clinical failure and the tumultuous crawl to recovery. 

A visceral, heartbreaking, and darkly funny story of ambition, grief, and mental health, this debut one woman play by doctor turned National Theatre actress Dr Sara Otung brings a new voice to the stage.
