Every so often you come across a personal story that must be told and shared. Cutting edge dance theatre creator and performance artist, Stuart Waters, tells his story of depression, addiction and destruction in a new autobiographical work ROCKBOTTOM.
In this podcast, Stuart candidly shares his deeply personal journey and talks with honesty about the challenges he’s faced and how he hit his ‘rock bottom’. He also shares how he has drawn on these times and found the strength to rebuild his life and continue his 20-year career of creating powerful dance theatre to create ROCKBOTTOM.
“…it’s a painfully revealing, highly physical look at mental health and that sometimes elusive thing called happiness…”
ROCKBOTTOM has received rave reviews and after showing at The Place in London earlier this month, it is heading on a 3 date UK tour:
October 2nd – Birmingham Midlands Arts Centre
October 8th – Cornwall, Truro College Helford Theatre
October 9th – University of Plymouth
