NT Connections: No Regrets

Performed by Taunton Brewhouse Youth Theatre as part of National Theatre Connections.

Over the course of five years, playwright Gary McNair spoke to people at all stages and in all walks of life on the subject of regret. This play marks the results of those conversations. A collection of scenes from the silly to the profound, that charts our relationship with the things we should have done but didn’t and the things we shouldn’t have done, but did.
