It's hard to tell when your life will change.
Hard to spot that moment, that day when you wake up normal, but end up falling far from everything you've ever known. Spinning into nothingness. Today is that day.
Mikey and Addie is a storytelling show for 9+. It asks how do you work out who you are when everything around you is changing? Created with Rob Evans and produced by Red Bridge Arts it performed at the Edinburgh Fringe as part of the Made in Scotland showcase 2016.

"A show that’s perceptively written, brilliantly performed, and definitely an hour well-spent – however grown up you might think you are." **** Paul F. Cockburn, Broadway Baby
"...it’s the value of friendship and self-knowledge that shines out for audiences (aged 9+ recommended) thanks to Manley’s gift for story-telling." **** Mary Brennan, The Herald
" Manley magnetises with elite storytelling in this beautifully written piece by Robert Alan Evans in which the smallness and greatness of life are brought together creating a personal universe." **** Irene Brown, The Edinburgh Guide
