Show will put brain injury in the spotlight

A SPOKEN word performance about how “someone can make a comeback from the darkest of times and still be able to laugh about it” is coming to Rotherham Civic Theatre.

Local performer Eleanor May Blackburn brings Subdural Hematoma, “the story of several people’s journey through a brain injury and a celebration of what lies ahead”, to the Civic on Wednesday, September 7.

Mixing the voices of parents with tragic and, at times, comedic moments, Chapeltown-based actor, writer and theatre maker Eleanor takes the audience through the twists and turns of hospital life, looking at the lighter side of a debilitating and life-changing head injury.
