Later Life Letter at Southbank Centre's Purcell Room

Later Life Letter tells the story of Luke Wright’s adoption – the life he leads, and the one he might have done.

What’s it like to stumble across your birth mother on Facebook? How do you honour the parents who have raised you while satisfying a curiosity about where you came from? Is it telling that you married a social worker?

This is a frank account of what it means to be someone’s child, told by a performer who really knows what he’s doing. Expect raucous laughter, tear-stained cheeks and a smattering of drum and bass.
