About this show

Getting a job is hard. It’s especially hard when you have an arts degree, don’t know what sort of work you want to do, have vague notions of grandeur and can’t pay your rent. After Careful Consideration explores the experience of four friends thrust into post university life, where secret romances, jobs, lack of jobs, jealousy, uncertainty and ultimately an inability to match each other's ideas on how to live a good life leads to breakdown. Brought to you by JumpShip Theatre.
