Have you told your friend you’re in love with them yet?

Blake and Charlie can only say the wrong words at the right time. One’s brain goes brrr, the other’s clunk clunk. Join these two in a mess of gay panic and neurodivergency as they navigate the glorious awkwardness of the ’20-something’ identity crisis, the beauty of female relationships, and doing it all in a world not built for you (with arguable success). From the anxious and brilliant brain of Lily Boss-Bailey and directed by Eliza Smith (She’s Terribly Greedy, Everything Flickers) Much Stuff is a confessional of the rude and crude parts of being a human who is perhaps a little too sensitive- served with a side of dexies and awful cramps.

But it’s okay, we promise. We meant that in the nicest way possible.
No really, you’re great.
Notable Reviews
"Much Stuff provides lots of cues for Stage Manager Holland Brooks to expertly hit, who also cameos as a smooth and kinda sassy disembodied voice (talk about multitasking)." Magazine 6000
​
"Presented by a queer and neuro-divergent production team, Much Stuff is a delightfully awkward romance, and celebration of female relationships amid a world that is not made for the neuro-divergent. Dealing with some big issues, the warmth of the performers makes this an enjoyable experience." Stage Whispers​​
