EYES LIKE MINE

Supported by Arts Council England, Eyes Like Mine is a verbatim play created in response to the suicide crisis in the North East of England. 

Created with men from the N/E who had lost a brother or best friend to suicide, the blended verbatim words from the interviewees then created two fictional brothers from Jarrow: Max and Darren.
