I Should Have Drunk More Champagne

Overview

Ever said something you wish you hadn't? Or gone home from a party when things were starting to get interesting? Like a swift punch to the stomach regret can be gut-wrenching. Whether it be utter embarrassment, not seizing an opportunity or ignoring your heart in favour of your head, regret is familiar to us all.

Performance collective, The Good Room, have designed an event to exhibit regret in all of its cringe-worthy forms. In February the team asked strangers to anonymously share their biggest regrets. Over 500 secrets were collected and now, it's time for them to see the light of day as part of, 'I Should Have Drunk More Champagne'.

In Metro Arts' basement you will find a tangle of tales from wallflowers, outspoken drunks and victims of lost love. Some will make you squirm, others will make you laugh but they will all remind you that each of us is prone to a good old face palm.
