Details

Meet the woman who finds herself urinating off the top of the Scott Monument in Edinburgh, the man who nearly burns down a stranger's kitchen, the mother who almost beats her son to death in a drunken rage''' "My first drink seemed to unlock something. I threw up, went home, woke up with a stinking hangover the next morning and thought, ?that was fantastic, when are we doing it again?" Blackout is an honest, brutal and often hilarious insight into alcoholism and recovery, scripted entirely from interviews with recovering alcoholics, including the writer, and staged by New Room Theatre in a visceral piece of physically charged theatre.
