Lost Property
Nominated: The Stage Awards for Acting Excellence: Best Ensemble (2005)
UK Entry to the Cairo Festival of International Theatre (2004).
Can there be a place where lost things go? The memories, the keys, the loves, the socks?
Follow your hand down the back of the sofa and there is a door, open the door and you’ll find yourself in the lost property department. Why do we lose things? And if you have, was it really that important to begin with?
A highly acrobatic search for lost objects, hearts and people.
