About

Spit It Out is the new play written by Alice Stephens (Creative Writing PhD candidate, University of Essex) and directed by Noah Alfred Pantano (Standing On A Nail). The play stars trans actress Audrey Thompson as Emily. Joe Eason (Two Come Home), Robyn Faye (Les Enfants Terribles) and Isobel Sheard (The S is Silent) accompany Thompson to play a cascade of characters that complicate Emily's coming out.

Spit It Out was written as part of Stephens's M.A. Creative Writing dissertation at the University of Essex. Following a sold-out premiere in Colchester and with two runs upcoming in London and Brighton, Pantano & Co. are excited to bring this play back home to the Lakeside Theatre.
