Poetry legend Michael Rosen presents his new one-person show Getting Through It, formed of a double-bill of monologues: The Death of Eddie and Many Kinds of Love.
In The Death of Eddie, Michael recounts the death of his son from meningitis at the age of 18. In Many Kinds of Love, Michael recalls how he contracted COVID-19 and spent 48 days in intensive care. He was put into an induced coma and had a 50% chance of dying.
Getting Through It is a powerful one-person show exploring grief and mortality.
