IN THE SHADOW OF THE MOUNTAIN @ THE OLD RED LION
MAY-JUNE 2018
This new play by Felicity Huxley-Miners ran at The Old Red Lion Theatre as a co-production between Quantum Frolic and Instinct Theatre.
​
We were thrilled to be supported by mental health charity Mind and raised money and awareness throughout the run.
​
Synopsis
Rob stands on the edge of oblivion just as the chaotic Ellie careers into his life. They desperately need each other but is Ellie, who’s struggling with her own Borderline Personality Disorder, really the best person to try and help?
​
This touching, funny story explores a relationship born in the throes of a mental health crisis as a couple struggles to find their place in the world. Sometimes you can only save one person. And it’s okay if that person is you.

"An exceptional central performance from the playwright and excellent support from David Shears, brings Borderline Personality Disorder out of the shadows in a funny, fast-moving drama."

QUANTUM FROLIC PRESENTS #1 @ THE OLD RED LION
OCTOBER 2017
Quantum Frolic launched themselves as a theatre company with the well regarded night promoting new writing. A sell-out success, the feedback from the audience gave a solid platform for our writers to develop their work.
We met some wonderful creatives and look forward to working with them in the future.
