How far can one go when seeking revenge?

I’m Allergic To People is a new dark comedy by Rebecca Douglass, exploring the experiences of women within sex and dating culture as well as queerness, identity and closure. ​

The play follows the lives of four young adults trying to navigate life after past traumas. Adam is in denial, Elisabeth has trust issues, Olivia is on the verge of a breakdown and Jay is keeping a dark secret. What happens when their lives become entangled in a twisted plot?

The company is made up of emerging creatives who have worked with The Young Vic, The National Youth Theatre, Burnt Orange Theatre, The Royal Court, Theatre Peckham and Young Actors Theatre Islington. They all share a passion for developing socially relevant and inclusive theatre.
