To Tour the UK, a Reminder that YOU FORGOT THE MINCE
Francesca Joy's debut play You Forgot the Mince is set to embark on a UK tour.
You Forgot the Mince, is a raw and compelling portrait of an intense, passionate and ultimately abusive relationship that spirals out of control with unexpected consequences. Drawn from personal accounts and interviews with victims and perpetrators, this gritty piece of new writing embarks on a UK Tour to theatres and prisons this autumn.
The show entered a research and development stage later in 2014, which included three months of research: interviews and focus groups with ex-offenders, counselling groups for men who have a history of abusing women, victims of domestic abuse, prisoners, prison officers and probation workers. This also included spending time with Cardboard Citizens, Clean Break and a week long training course with Safe Ground at the National Offender Management Unit.
