Songwriter Joey Contreras, who wrote the viral musical 'In Pieces,' exclusively tells BroadwayWorld what’s next after the show’s recent sold-out London run.

On her deathbed, US playwright Joshua Harmon’s grandmother granted him permission to write a play about their family, on the condition that it be as “brutal and vitriolic” as possible. The result is We Had A World, a Pandora’s Box of generational trauma – indeed, the actor playing Harmon begins by opening up a literal box.

Olivier Award-winner Suzanne Bertish, Anna Francolini, and Ryan Kopel will star in the UK premiere of WE HAD A WORLD at Hampstead Theatre, directed by Josh Seymour.

The London premiere staged concert of Joey Contreras' In Pieces has added a fourth and final performance at The Other Palace on Tuesday 31 March at 11am due to demand with all tickets throughout the house priced at £35.
