Wish You Weren't Here at Yvonne Arnaud Theatre

A hilarious and heart-warming exploration of family relationships across generations, the agony of growing up, and how to find your way in the world.

I might not be able to drive legally, but I’m pretty nifty in a dodgem

After all those extra shifts, all Lorna wants is a night out on the town and to reconnect with her daughter. All 16-year-old Mila wants is for the world to stop burning. And for someone to take down that ‘Beach Body Ready’ poster, please!

The Stage

As mum and daughter check into their ‘premium’ room where they can almost see the sea, they discover that their favourite seaside town could really use some attention – just like their relationship.

Join them on their fairground rollercoaster of a journey, brilliantly written by Katie Redford (Tapped, Theatre503; Yellow Lips, BBC Radio 4) with plenty of laughs along the way.
