Details

A man is brought into hospital with total amnesia. His doctors attempt to cure him and discover his true identity, but while he has no idea who or where he is, he experiences a vivid internal universe. This interior world becomes progressively more real than the hospital ward's clinical surroundings. It may be less important to find out who he is, than what he is. Devised by physical theatre company Mercurial, Based on Doris Lessing's Briefing for a Descent into Hell.
Performers James Turpin, Laura Hayes, George Mann, Nir Paldi, Loren O'Dair, Sarah Maguire. Producer Mercurial. Director Avye Leventis. Design Polly Webb-Wilson. Music Tom Rowland.
