A Sixth Form student directs the Year 10 Sackville Society students in a rehearsed reading of Chaos, by Laura Lomas.
A girl is locked in a room. A boy brings another boy flowers. A girl has tied herself to a railing. A boy doesn’t know who he is. A girl worries about impending catastrophe. A woman jumps in front of a train. A boy’s heart falls out his chest. A butterfly has a broken wing.
Laura Lomas’ play, Chaos, is a symphony of dislocated and interconnected scenes. A series of characters search for meaning in a complicated and unstable world. Bouncing through physics, the cosmos, love and violence, they find order in the disorder of each other.
Contains violence and scenes describing racially motivated harassment and suicide. References to climate anxiety and anxious behaviour patterns. Suitable for ages 14+.
The Sackville Theatre is a flexible space, with a wide range of different staging and seating configurations available with a seating capacity of 230 (subject to stage shape and size).
