South Australian theatre maker Isobel Pitt gives a tender and touching glimpse into a woman’s experience of a panic attack, and the anxiety that compounds with the anticipation of one. ★★★★

‘Downstairs’ is an intimate depiction of Pitt’s experience of panic. She holds the audience for the entire 45 minutes of what could be very dark material but being well written, is not.

DOWNSTAIRS

March 11th - 15th 2025 | Goodwood Theatre & Studios

A love letter to the nervous system. Mentally ill (and won’t shut up about it) Isobel Pitt takes you to the place where memories are stored, emotions are processed, and anxiety is waiting to welcome you with open arms. Hopeful, heartfelt, and occasionally humorous, this multidisciplinary show sheds light on what is really at play during a panic attack.
