Keron Day is disabled. Dani is his Personal Assistant (not as fancy as it sounds). A touching and funny exploration of how care goes both ways with live music, inspired by a true story. The play will have a work in progress sharing at Hall for Cornwall before opening at the Summerhall for the 2026 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

​

The winner of the Mary Dick Award for work led by a disabled artist and supported by Keron's local theatre Hall for Cornwall, the play began life as an R&D at Theatre Royal Plymouth in 2025. Keron Day is an acclaimed disabled performer and activist, known for Kirkmoore (BBC) and Sex Education (Netflix). You and Me (and Whoever Comes Next) is his debut play.
