Four original pieces from London’s most promising emerging theatre makers explore the thematics of pain through self reflective and socio-political pieces, reflecting the voice of London today: diverse, intercultural, subversive, funny, angry and bold. The pain of loneliness, the pain of getting older, self inflicted pain or psychological trauma: pain is all around, may it be internal or external, voluntary or imposed, and it has always been the ideal distiller of the richest essences of art.
