Exeter Northcott Theatre today announces the regional tour for Beyond My Control – the first production created from a new collaboration between the theatre and Exeter university academics which opens at the Unity, Liverpool on 30th January ahead of performances in Lincoln, London, Exeter, Swindon and Aberystwyth.

The production – part game show, part improvised drama, part maths puzzle – aims to shed fresh light on epilepsy and pioneering research being undertaken at Exeter University which could revolutionize global diagnostic procedures. Improvised scenes take audiences through the characteristics of the brain to explain how seizures occur alongside testimonies from those living with the condition.
