Backward Glance - Multistory Theatre
Hands reaching, a severed head preaching – can the world be put back together again? Words and physical imagery from a company with impeccable Fringe credentials. 16+

A celebrity death - cause uncertain - is the catalyst for a journey to hell and back.

A woman has died, her husband provides conflicting versions of the circumstances and can't account for where he disappeared to immediately after the death.

A journalist smells a scandal, an investigator is determined to prove foul play. A mourning mother looks for somewhere to lay the blame. And the husband is on a mission in quite another dimension.

All involved have markedly different visions of past, present and future - different assumptions, different world views - leading to a conflict with deadly consequences. Using a mix of words, sound and physical imagery to weave its story, this new production premiers at Komedia as part of Brighton Festival Fringe.
