About the show
For Eva is a new writing drama from Fallada Theatre Company at The Annexe. The show follows Cray, who has confined themselves to a barn, using speech, body, lights, staging and memories of before they were born to try to express something difficult to articulate. Struggling with anxiety and the safety of the familiar, Cray refuses to answer whether they want to start healing. The show explores the boundaries of what can and cannot be said. It runs for 45 minutes and is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over.
Why see this show?
A quietly ambitious student and youth production that takes on the difficult territory of mental health and self-confinement with formal inventiveness. The use of body, light and memory in place of straightforward narrative makes it a distinctive Fringe offer.
