Thumbs-up for New Era

The Fades creator returns to home town for a performance of his award-winning radio play

NEW Era began the next chapter of its life with an innovative staged production of Jack Thorne's award winning radio play People Snogging in Public Places at the Wash Common playhouse.The Wash Common theatre is now open to all, having recently been granted a premises licence, and the first attempt to perform more challenging material was a rousing success according to Thorne, who took in the Friday showing in a rare trip back to the town he grew up in. See Thursday's N2 arts and entertainment to see what he said about the performance.
