The Zoo Story

The Zoo Story

by Edward Albee

The Unconscious Theatre Collective proudly presents (Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award Winner) Edward Albee’s seminal piece ‘Zoo Story’.

Two very different men meet by chance in Central Park on a sunny Sunday afternoon. A play about isolation, social disparity, hope and connection, and the inhumanity of modern life. Witty, strange, but ultimately poignant and grounded, the friendly chat they begin will have profound effects on the direction of both their lives.

We are a London-based company of international actors with a commitment to truthful and improvisational work.

Paler, Still

Paler, Still

by Oonagh Wall in collaboration with the company.

Nothing grows in Dublin anymore.
Concrete, glass and grey. The landscape is the same everywhere,
Beyond the Pale, in the rural Irish boglands, an abandoned Hotel rots.
This would be a safe place to stagnate.
Or so it seems.
Set in a near-future Ireland were the Western World has eaten itself into anonymity and another recession: Paler, Still is a new tragi-comedy and is anseo|anois theatre’s debut production.
Paler, Still tells a story set in Ireland, but it is not just a story for the Irish. This small country is a microcosm for something we see happening all over the Western World. The poverty gap widens, some opportunities only available to a select few, society circling back on itself again and again and our play asks, what is the cost of progress? What is lost as we charge into the future? Are some people always left behind? And, if we despair at society, can we simply opt out?

Duty

Duty

by Bomafabia Wokoma

When a Nigerian family moves to London, it’s a far cry from the life they’d hoped for.’Duty’ explores how detatchment, discontent, gender and racial constructs play out for Petal, a young black woman, both in society and intimite relationships. Plus the bitter sweet hope of finding purpose in the midst of it all.

Prison Dialogues

Prison Dialogues

by Mark Hewitt

Mark C. Hewitt’s play The Revenge Fantasy Club was shortlisted for the Best New Play Award at Brighton Fringe 2013. Prison Dialogues consists of interweaving male and female narratives set in ‘the everyday’ of prison. Two men, three women, three chairs, and a compelling text full of banter that leans playfully towards the futile but fun. The piece is loosely informed by writer Mark C. Hewitt’s work as an artist in UK prisons. Performed by Leann O’Kasi, Sarah J. Lewis, Araba Jane and two male actors yet to be announced. With incidental music by Peter Copley.
