Event: Little Boxes with Joann Condon

Saturday 02 July 2022
3pm and 8pm

Oldham Coliseum Studio
Fairbottom St, Oldham, OL1 3SW

DETAILS:

LITTLE BOXES is a comedic and inspiring one-woman show, written by and starring Joann Condon (Little Britain, The Last Letter from your Lover, Dad’s Army: The Lost Episodes, Cradle to Grave, The Office) as she explores the boxes she has found herself in throughout life:

The hopes and dreams of a child, the frustrations of an acting career, the tensions of parenthood, the grief in losing loved ones, the fear of being… herself.

Described as “funny, touching and at times heartbreaking,” by London Pub Theatres, Joann uses personal anecdotes to highlight assumptions and judgements made about her based-on looks, age, gender and background. These are common experiences most of us can relate to. “It’s natural for people in our lives to want to force us into nice little boxes,” says Condon, “but the scary thing is, after a period of time, you end up putting yourself in that same box.”
