Shellshocked

Thu 30 Oct 2025 - Sat 01 Nov 2025
From the creative team behind the five-star, multi-award-winning Jesus, Jane, Mother and Me and LASH, comes a thrilling new drama.
 
The horrors of World War Two have broken young Wesley, but could the madness he encounters beyond it save or destroy a soldier’s shellshocked mind?
 
Following a hugely successful sold-out Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Shellshocked is a powerful new play by Leeds-born playwright Philip Stokes, recognised by the British Library as a culturally important playwright of the 21st Century.
 
Starring Jack Stokes, Winner of the Adelaide Critics Circle Award 2023, and Lee Bainbridge, previously in Heroin(e) For Breakfast (★★★★★, Sunday Telegraph).
 
Presented by Richard Jordan Productions, King Brilliant Theatre, 412, Lawrence Batley Theatre and Harrogate Theatre.
