From dopamine to dharma. A solo show about ADHD, addiction and breathwork.
This work in progress show is the story of one man?s healing journey, from chasing laughs and dopamine hits to moving into a Buddhist community and trying (badly) to meditate.
Blending stand-up, storytelling and theatrical moments, A Mind Full explores what happens when a wide boy with impulse issues goes full mindfulness. Along the way: spiritual bypassing, compulsive behaviour and the ongoing tension between craving peace and needing the spotlight.
A raw, funny and painfully relatable look at what happens when you try to heal... and your brain has other plans.
The show builds on the world of the 2023 short film of the same name, written and directed by Steve Whiteley. The film won the British Comedy Guide Pro Talent Award for Best Directing, with the BCG praising it as:
?Witty and empathetic? poking fun at just how difficult it is to fight distraction, thorny emotions and our own nature in the search for peace and enlightenment. It mines the gap between intention and actuality for a cheeky, memorable irony.?
?Enjoy this hilarious short film called A Mind Full, the latest from filmmaker Steve Whiteley. It will help you deal with anger!?

Now reimagined for the stage, A Mind Full is a deeper, messier, funnier look at what it really means to grow, heal and try to breathe through it all.
The Brunswick has been transformed through an extensive refurbishment programme to become the premier music and arts venue in Hove. The owners are committed to providing quality, value for money and a friendly atmosphere.We believe that a pub is an essential part of any thriving community, and should be seen as a facility for the whole community. By encouraging local groups, we run a range of classes: acting, singing, painting, language, wine tasting; and have become a meeting place for a number of groups. With a large garden and a number of meeting rooms, we can offer space for most clubs, societies or social groups. If your looking for somewhere to host your book group, yoga class, dance class, debating club, and so on, give us a call, or better still, pop in. Support your local pub.
Built in the 1930’s, The Brunswick is a striking building with curved bays, turret roofs and brass crittall style windows. Much of the original paneling (the same as used in the Orient Express) has been rescued and restored, particularly in The Venue. Atmosphere and mood change as you move from the beautifully constructed sunny garden through the airy garden room to the bar (a fusion of the best of modern bar and traditional pub). Despite the high-tech sound and stage equipment, the music and arts Venue with its wood paneling, period lighting and fireplace retains a wonderfully cozy feel. Upstairs we have beautifully decorated rooms for meetings and private parties – see Function Room Hire
We offer a broad range of home cooked food every day. Accolades have included “Restaurant quality food at pub pricesâ€; “The best Sunday Lunch in Brightonâ€; “As an American, I’m very critical of hamburgers – this is one of the best I’ve had anywhere.â€
