Sheridan is having a bad day. Her church is closing, Adult Social Care are on her case, and she can’t work out what ingredients she needs from Homebase to make a bomb. With no one else to turn to, she climbs the scaffolding around the leaking church steeple with a few questions for Whoever Is In Charge.
Scaffolding is an explosive new show about strength, love and community and an award-nominated play produced in association with Bristol Old Vic and Pleasance Theatre Trust for the Edinburgh National Partnerships programme.
Developed in association with Bristol Old Vic, and with thanks to original director Lillian Waddington, producer Jessamie Edkins-O’Brien, actor Suzanna Hamilton and the original creative team.
Running time: 75 mins plus Q&A
