Stay Awake, Jake
Tour synopsis, cast & creatives
Tim Gilvin's multi-award-winning one-act musical Stay Awake, Jake is a bold and innovative new show that tells the story of one man's journey across England's deserted motorways in the middle of the night, as he drives from London to Carlisle in a frantic bid to save his relationship.
Stay Awake, Jake is about love, responsibility, fatherhood, and ultimately what it means to be a man in the 21st century.
