Gamble

Gamble is a glittering, glamorous peek into the spectacular world of online gambling.

A bittersweet multimedia show about addiction and its effect on families, friends, and communities.

There's a girl who used to think gambling was all about big wins at the village monthly bingo.

A decade later, the gambling industry is all about online and is BIGGER than ever! Without realising it, it's made its way into the girl's home, her relationship, her joint account.

The UK gambling industry is worth £14.3 billion and an estimated 24 million people participate in online gambling in the UK. That's 44% of the entire adult population.

Nothing will ever be any easier than opening your phone, logging in online, and starting to gamble, all within the comfort of your own home alongside those you love most.

Based on a true, personal story and inspired by accounts of industry experts, health professionals, people in recovery, and their loved ones, Gamble is a spangling whirlwind of flashing lights and big wins.

Gambling is in the palm of your hand.

All day. All night.

Every second.

Right.

Now.

This performance will be Integrated BSL Interpreted and afterwards there will be a post show discussion with Dr Matt Gaskell, Consultant psychologist and head of the NHS Northern Gambling Service that everyone is welcome to attend.
