If We Ended This

If We Ended This is a play about intimacy. Though perhaps we shouldn’t say ‘about’. This is our expression of how intimacy fuels and governs us, how we lose ourselves in it and find ourselves in the fallout. Engaging with what it means to grow up, grow closer to others and grow into ourselves, this play revolves around ideas of connection and closeness, isolation and loneliness. A constellatory series of short vignettes performed by two actors, it draws on experiences of the past year in and out of lockdown and plays with the language we use and abuse in our struggle to define our relationships with others and the world. In If We Ended This, we – touch starved and doubtful of the future – ask what it means to live in the world inside our heads and what it takes to build a life beyond at a time when intimacy has taken on a whole new meaning.
