Pitch Productions presents an original play from Molly Barnes-Tate. 'Such Happy People' sees a new father unable to cope with devastating loss, in a production exploring death and grief.

Unable to quell the cries of his newborn daughter, James — out of options and slowly losing his mind — calls his sister-in-law, Viv. Her arrival finds the house in utter disarray, and a man who hasn’t showered in days and not slept in even longer. Viv’s attempts to alleviate James’ stress and offer support are rejected, as are any discussions about what happened. James and Viv enter an intricate dance of being aware of the situation, but totally unable to discuss it.
