The piece begins with 26 year-old Michelle receiving her diagnosis. “Take That” become Michelle’s confidants, mentors, and best friends in the solace of her bedroom.

This results in a culmination of events that result in meltdown and a period where Michelle is forced to learn more about herself and the world around her.

Emma Devine of the Alley Theatre commented: “This play is so important as so many people are affected by Asperger’s. Anna Kyle really displays an emotional performance filled with comedy, loneliness and the up and downs that every teenager faces. It is one not to be missed.”

Tickets are £12, £10 (con) available from the Alley Theatre on 028 71 384444 or www.alley-theatre.com.
