From the desk of Christopher Brett Bailey comes a spiraling odyssey of pitch-black humour and nightmarish prose.
Christopher Brett Bailey is a maker and writer of theatre, author of the award-winning punk-opera The Inconsiderate Aberrations of Billy the Kid. As a performer he has appeared at National Theatre, BBC, BAC, Almeida and in the bowels of the Top Secret Nuclear Bunker at Kelvedon Hatch. He is also a composer and performer of music and sound.
Really shocks or transforms you - achingly hip and frighteningly
savage - an extraordinary experience.
*Lyn Gardner, The Guardian*
Blisteringly brilliant - a staggeringly eloquent piece of work.
*The Scotsman*
Is this actually how we die? Driven at disorientingly high speed
through the blazing landscape of our own riot-torn hearts, while
the radio blares adverts for impossible products conceived in the
agonizing heat of capitalism’s terminal inferno? Christopher Brett
Bailey auctions off everything we have and everything we think we
know to the lowest bidder, leaving us stripped and spent and
blissed out and beaten by language, that treacherous stuff we had
thought was our friend. No, there ain’t no sanity clause: but I’d
trust Bailey with my life, and if this is how we die, you know,
it’s really not such a bad way to go.
*Chris Goode*
a visceral, world-burning piece… a brutal, vital, incredible
show.
*Total Theatre*
