For My Girlfriend receives 5 star reviews!

 For My Girlfriend was commissioned as part of the 2009 national road safety campaign and features a fatal road traffic collision in which a young male driver kills his girlfriend. Fusing fact, fiction, music, physical theatre, audience participation, projections and real-life accounts from the emergency services, the play showcases the wider effect of a fatal collision. From the mundane problem of a traffic jam to the devastating emotional consequences of losing a loved one. For many characters, it’s just another day, but for the parents and friends directly involved, their lives are changed forever in an instant. 

This performance supports the work of The Road Victim’s Trust, a registered charity that provides free emotional and practical support to all persons affected by a road death across Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire. To find out more about the work of the Trust,

Thank you to everyone who supported the performance! 

Thank you again for a poignant and impactful performance last night. It was all of our first time seeing the production, aside from Lyn and we were blown away by the students’ talent and dedication to relaying the message in a resonating way, they should be very proud of themselves! We look forward to continuing this journey with you and supporting you in any way that we can, as well as promoting the performance and sharing our experience with it. We cannot express how grateful we are for all of your efforts.

Very rewarding to see a new performance of the play, as the messages are still so important. Congratulations to everyone involved – they are all extremely talented at what they do.

I just wanted to give you my personal thanks for being my voice for the event and helping to share my story. In turn you will be helping us keep our roads a little safer. This tragedy has remained with the families for their rest of their lives, but it’s also stuck with me. You are empowered in helping to make a real difference in keeping people safe and may without even knowing it, prevent someone from dying on our roads by sharing my experience. That is the privilege I’ve had throughout my career and a privilege that I now share with you, and for that you have my fullest gratitude and wish you all the best for the future. Kindest regards, Nick.
