Trigger warnings

Because can't stop can't stop explores themes of mental health and troubling thoughts, we at samdoestheatre aim to ensure that the welfare of our audiences is fully taken care of. However, the nature of the show requires that certain elements are withheld before the performance, in order for them to achieve their full effect. Therefore, if you are fully concerned about the content of the show, the details are laid out below:

​

  • During the show, examples of obsessive compulsive routines will be performed on stage. Some of these are very extreme or intense. Furthermore, the way the staging is set means the action can occur very close to the audience. Email samdoestheatre@gmail.com if you have any further concerns about this.

  • Towards the end of the show, Sam discloses the central fear that fuels his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder - this is related to issues of sexual abuse and paedophilia. If you concerned about this and wish to find out more about these types of intrusive thoughts, do visit this link for more information: https://www.intrusivethoughts.org/ocd-symptoms/pocd-pedophile-ocd/
