"Anne? Brilliant. It’s moving. It’s timely. It’s distressing. It’s funny. It’s sexy. It’s deeply serious. It’s entertaining. It’s illuminating. It’s cryptic. It’s dark. Let’s meet. Call me."
Directed by Angelica Clunes & Samuel Boyd, Split Focus brings 'Attempts on Her Life' by Martin Crimp to The Stables at Meat Market in a dynamic, site-specific adventure reverberating with a late 20th century aesthetic. Audiences move from one room to the next in a phantasmagoria of images, examining how a single moment can impact on a life, and how quickly an identity can be demolished. Moving between comedy, pop-opera, campfire ghost-story and absurdist tragedy, this compelling work leaves the audience to decide who Anne could be in this brilliant theatrical labyrinth.
In a media-drenched world obsessed with uncovering the ‘truth’, 'Attempts on Her Life' by Martin Crimp is a hilarious theatre work of 17 scenarios that explore our understanding of the human psyche.
With Danae Reid, Emily Carr, Finn Alexander, Helene Dunlop, Joanna Bakker, Kashmira Mohamed Zagor + Rayhan Maskun.
