‘Set in the communal room of a grief retreat with no therapist in sight, the piece asks: what happens when strangers are left to navigate their loss together?

As tensions rise and defences fall, humour slips through the cracks. It is raw, awkward, and deeply human. Devised collaboratively, ‘That’s Life’ explores how grief is woven through the human experience, and questions if it ever truly leaves us.’
"This play had me laughing one moment and close to tears the next. It was thought-provoking, emotional and incredibly well balanced, managing to bring humour to a subject that could so easily have felt overwhelming."
"I thought it was an absolutely brilliant production. The writing was so strong, and I felt it allowed the audience to connect with every character in a meaningful way. It was incredibly emotional, moving, and stayed with me long after it ended."
"I came to watch "That’s Life" with no idea of what I was going to watch. What I wasn’t expecting was to witness such a heart-wrenching, yet topical and relatable piece of news writing. The brilliant collaborative approach to the script is likely a key reason why the play feels so alive and grounded, drawing on stories of grief anyone could have experienced."
