The Last of The Lake blends bold physical staging with audio-visual design allowing a rich and heady world of birds, mermaids and ritual to burst into life. "In distant desert villages where water is sparse young girls can either accept what fate has given them or fi ght against it. She turned into a mermaid." The very last of the life-giving lake is about to run out. The village just hopes their saviours don't run out on them. This new play from acclaimed young company Rough Fiction brings the technicolour and extravagant world of magical realism to life as two girls, twinned by birth and by prophesy, engage in an epic, healing and emotionally-testing journey to the sea. Created by Phil King and Simon Pittman with the company. The performance will be followed by a postshow Q & A with the Director.
