Attachment Theory
by Liam Scanlon, directed by Dom Stephens
A new couple starts seeing the same therapist without realizing it. As their relationship unravels in the therapist’s chair, who is manipulating whom?
Two queer men navigate their fresh romance through their therapy sessions. One is a former American monk with a troubled past. The other, an anxiety-prone, privileged English painter courting drug addiction. As their memories begin to contradict and trauma re-emerges, the therapist, as well as the audience, must consider who might be telling the truth, and whose story this really is.
A new queer National Lottery Grant winning play, ATTACHMENT THEORY is written by London Writer Award winner Liam Scanlon.
Directed by Brighton Fringe Award nominee Dom Stephens (The Old Vic, The Pleasance; whose work has been described by The Scotsman as “consistently funny and ambitious”) and produced by Act on Tap, the play brings together Dan Holland (Netflix’s La Comtessa Di Monte), Marley Brown (Apple TV+’s Masters of the Air), and Bernice Togher (London stage debut).

OUR HISTORY
The Bread & Roses is an award-winning free house right in the heart of Clapham. Owned by The Battersea and Wandsworth Trade Union Council (BWTUC) and run by the Workers Beer Company, part of BWTUC Trading, it prides itself as a pub with a social consciousness.
The Bread & Roses is named in recognition of the struggle of workers around the globe for a better quality of life. The name is taken from a song written during a strike of women textile workers in Lawrence Massachusetts, USA in 1912. 27.000 women went out onto the streets and marched for eleven weeks to improve their working conditions. Their banners called for bread and roses. A poet among them, James Oppenheim, wrote the lyrics to what became the trademark song for women trade unionists around the world. It is still sung by delegates to conclude the ICTU Women's Conference.
