A play for voices based on author de Bernières’ experiences of living above a shop in South
London. Brilliantly capturing the myriad voices of modern Britain, with their different rhythms
of speech and accents, their humour and their tragedy, jokes and gossip, de Bernières' tour
de force takes us to the heart of a community and its spirit - the lives of its people.
SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE
By Sam Potter
Performed by the Senior School
Directed by Sixth Former Emily Smart
Tuesday 3rd July, 8.00pm &Wednesday 4th July, 6.00pm
The NorthWall Drama Studio
A group of teenagers set off to celebrate exam results at a music festival. Hazel wants to
get drunk. Diana wants to lose her virginity. Vampire Boy wants to change and Livi … well
Livi just wants to forget about everything that’s happened for a while but some things are
just too big to forget, even if it’s only for one weekend. In an innovative development, this
original play was co-commissioned by the School and The North Wall specifically for Gaudy
and the Edinburgh Fringe, giving Sixth Form Director Emily Smart and her cast an exceptional
opportunity to work with acclaimed playwright Sam Potter throughout the creative process.
