Reality and fiction divided

Reality and fiction divided

This Go ‘Round, Monday 6th to Saturday 11th September, Barnfield Theatre, Exeter

Amidst the mania of Summer’s September decline, Random Acts Theatre offers the world premier staging of This Go ‘Round.

No less aware of you than you of them, Adam Brummitt’s This Go ‘Round introduces to its audience the characters of Look and Listen; provided scarce more than a pool of light, the two grapple with the consciousness conferred to them by their author.

Though more unnerving than the knowledge of their being characters of play, embodied by actors, constantly under the surveillance of ‘the others’ is their knowledge of their inevitable finale as lights fade and audience applauds.

In the modernist tradition of Beckett, Pirandello, and Stoppard, drama is given a collisional dimension of its own.

As examination of the ambiguous divide between perceived reality and assumed fiction, Random Acts Theatre presents the first play in the still developing Void Cycle.

Tickets cost £8 or £6 fpr concessions and are available from the Barnfield theatre.
