Synopsis
'Today I ate a meal at a fancy restaurant. I like to do that sometimes. It makes me feel like I'm part of the world. Makes me realize nothing is impossible.' A tale from the city's edge. A dark journey filled with stolen cars, sleeping pills, kitchen knives and cheddar cheese crackers.

Perrier Award winner Will Adamsdale is a likeable stand-up comedian with a decent roster of acting credits. His performance as Eric Bogosian’s fantasising New York loser in Notes from Underground in the smaller of the Trafalgar Studios therefore combines his talents for buttonholing an audience and getting inside another character’s skin.
What is so disarming about the unnamed hero is his apparent normality. He watches Saturday Night Live and doesn’t see the point. He feels berated by Oprah Winfrey. He seeks out Picasso’s “Guernica” in the Museum of Modern Art. He maps out the exact topography of the Upper East Side on his perambulations while standing in a roomful of magazines and memories. But he also wonders why life cannot be simple, like masturbation.
