"I couldn't do your job"
📍Pleasance Theatre
🎫£16

This one was one heavy piece of screenplay. Oceni Theatre Company interviewed NHS paramedics and based on hundreds of stories created this play. I was expecting more of a sit-down kind of setting, but the play was very well choreographed, with lots of movement, actors getting off the stage and standing in the audience, and scenes that used symbolic yet effective props.
The play started pretty light with stories of people shoving things into "places where they don't belong" but then went on a sinusoid of sad/scary/nasty/funny again. Really well balanced script - which is OK to watch as the stories balance each other and won't make you feel too low by the end (which I was slightly worried about).
Big props to all 5 actors for creating a very natural atmosphere and making me feel like I was there, in the paramedics room, waiting for the next call.
Definitely left me thinking about the state of the NHS and lots of issues which I was not aware of (huge budget cuts leading paramedics to drop their mental therapy sessions, for example).
@icenitheatrecompany, you did an absolutely fantastic job!

I Couldn’t Do Your Job at @thepleasance

This play is incredibly important right now - with the NHS on its knees it shines a light on the issues faced by the workers that do the best they possibly can for the general public. It’s an completely unfiltered view of what it’s like for the people that help us all. The people you hope you never have to call, but will be there if you do.

It’s powerful, moving and everyone needs to see it now.

Check out my ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review now. Link in the bio!

3 Weeks until we open at @thepleasance ✨
A lot of love has gone into the making of this show, myself and @fayershannah interviewed a bunch of NHS paramedics to create this unfiltered verbatim play. This show will make you laugh & cry and if you don’t enjoy it I’ll buy ya a drink at the end!

Tickets are £16/£14 *NHS discount codes available

🚨 Don’t miss BA Acting grad Alan Emrys (G53) at the Pleasance Theatre this May! 🚨

“I Couldn’t Do Your Job offers a look into the highs & lows of being a paramedic. It explores themes including PTSD, the dark humour that gets them through the job & ultimately exploring the ‘why’ & the ‘how’ of what they do.”
