Three young women are sat on a box in the centre of a dark room. Confetti is falling all around d them and they are looking at the sky and smiling. They are all wearing shiny leggings, black boots with colourful laces, pink fluffy skits and feather boas. Their T shirts say ‘Actor A’, ‘Actor B’, and ‘Actor C’ on them.

I was 23 when it came crashing into my life; without warning, just when everything was going so well, just when I was really, really happy…

A three-woman, one-woman show about Multiple Sclerosis, MS for short, not to be confused with M&S or S&M.

With 90s pop, a costume box and a whole heap of glitter! – The Peggy Ramsay Award winning Bright Places is an honest, funny and autobiographical story about growing up in the shadow of chronic illness.
