An affair, an imaginary friend, an absent father, a story waiting to be written and a tragic accident.If I Cover My Nose... is part of our work-in-progress series, which gives audiences the chance to see up-to-the-minute theatre from a range of companies before they take flight into fully-fledged productions. Come and experience this miniature season of future theatre.
