Look to Your Left, Look to Your Right

  • Theatre
  • Entertainment

A sharp, contemporary narrative of a boy's rediscovery of his masculinity and identity in the aftermath of a traumatic event.

It is a depiction of what happens next as Boy navigates self-doubt, memory, shame and institutional failure in providing support structures for youth.

This performance will be the first fully staged reading of the script after an excerpt reading in Cipta Theatre's 2025 showcase.

This show contains references to sexual assault and themes of trauma.

Part of the NetherWorld Festival.
