2 Years Sober

Content warning [May contain spoilers]

2 Years Sober tells an emotional, intense, important and near the knuckle story of adolescent alcoholism and beginning adulthood with one simple task: getting sober. In this whirlwind, musical discussion of what it's like to be an alcoholic in Britain's alcohol infused society, we see the ups and downs of living with addiction, mental health issues, abuse, love and loss, featuring songs from Next to Normal and Heathers.

Anna Gungaloo, a philosophy student photographer, weaves an exciting, personal tale of therapy and sobriety in the two-year intermission (for mental health purposes) between her first and second years at Cambridge.

This year the Cambridge University Musical Theatre Society is transforming the Larkum Studio into the CUMTS Cabaret - a chance to explore the enchanting possibilities when music & theatre intertwine. After a successful first run, it is back to showcase powerful storytelling in a uniquely intimate setting: an experience like no other in Cambridge theatre!

This production is suitable for ages 16 and over.

The ADC Theatre is Britain's oldest University playhouse, today administered and maintained by the University of Cambridge. Plays have been presented on the site since 1855, when the Cambridge University Amateur Dramatic Club (CUADC) was founded, and the society met and performed in the back room of the Hoop Inn, which stood almost exactly where the ADC Theatre stands today. Today, the ADC Theatre is the centre of University drama in Cambridge, run almost entirely by students with no Faculty involvement.

The Larkum Studio is accessed through the far side of the ADC Bar.

This venue is wheelchair accessible. More information can be viewed here.
