Reasons to Stay Alive

T976136978
This play with music and movement, imagined for the stage by Jonathan Watkins, celebrates what it means to be alive. At 24 Matt's world collapsed under the weight of depression. This is the true story of his journey out of crisis; a profoundly uplifting exploration of living and loving better. The first theatrical adaptation of Matt Haig's frank and funny bestseller.
