‘DREAMSCAPE’
By Miriam Higgins

Dreamscape is based on the real-life unique story of freelance musician Greg Felton who was put in to an induced coma after contracting meningitis and encephalitis. In rehabilitation he wrote about his experiences which is the basis for this new play by Miriam Higgins. 

Come join this reading of Dreamscape, you can read (multiple sized roles available) or just listen. After the reading you'll be able to share your initial thoughts and any questions to the writer. There will also be a second session where we will rehearse sections of the play with Miriam and a chance to ask further questions.
