Wide Eye ProductionsSemi-professional company

60 minutesSpace 1
Woolwich hospital. A&E waiting room. No sign of a doctor. Orla Wyatt’s fierce new play, A&E, invites the audience to sit in the A&E waiting room and participate in humanity’s favourite activity: voyeurism. It follows the encounter of a hospital regular, a volatile and twitching addict seeking help for her meth problem, and a cocky prisoner with a broken hand, who, together, seem to see what others can’t. Wide Eye Productions presents a bold and witty take on class prejudice, moral ambiguity and Maltesers. In the fluorescent light of the waiting room, who’s really sick and who’s still human?
