Decades after surviving Auschwitz, chemist and writer Primo Levi is restless as he struggles to complete a story about a character he simply cannot understand. In search of guidance, he pulls from the memories which haunt him and inadvertently brings the characters from his past to life – though their input proves to be far more penetrating than expected.

In this poignant, potent play peppered with cheeky Yiddish humour, Geoffrey Williams invites you to embark on Primo’s cross-world journey which explores the ambiguity of human nature as defined by one of the twentieth century’s greatest thinkers.
