Stephen Fry to talk about mental health

 

Stephen Fry and Hugo Rifkind are among those who will be taking part in post-show talks after Gin For Breakfast, the debut play by Jess Moore, which is opening at the Tristan Bates Theatre this Thursday.

The production, which is about “friendship, fears and mental health struggles” tackles issues such as suicide and depression head on.

Four talks, centring around mental health and being put on in association with CALM (who work to prevent male suicide), have also been announced, and will take place after the show. Stephen Fry will be speaking on October 18, with Hugo Rifkind and Oliver Kamm on October 10.

The play is not only a debut for Moore, but also for Ryan Gage, the director.
