​

A thought-provoking dark comedy that addresses mental health issues,

suicidal thoughts and the fragility of the human condition.

 

​In the style of Theatre of the Absurd, two strangers meet on a bench at the edge of an abyss and contemplate their chosen paths.

Is there life beyond the void?

What is drawing them closer and closer to the edge?

Will they take the 'heroic dive'?

To find out, come and see this award-winning play!
