How Did I Get Here?

Pictures taken by Emily Appleton  

After a dark event in Alex’s life, her parents force her to enter a treatment centre for young people, where she attempts to work out exactly how she got here.

How Did I Get Here? is both a joyously funny and deeply moving piece of new writing, created in collaboration between Making Waves Theatre Company and young artists on Exeter Northcott’s Kickstart Programme. It explores mental health in young people, and asks how we can love ourselves and better understand other people.
