Overview

0 Stars

A snake will always find a way in. And he has. We’ve been sleeping so long that he’s had a feast… And this snake has been devouring them all whilst you and I are asleep in the next room. We’ve been standing on their tiny bones the entire time.

With unseen ‘little mouths’ and the belching fumes of the local refinery as a backdrop, we find ourselves in the beguiling world of Ma and Pa who spend their time exchanging extraordinary and fantastic stories… until suddenly there is a knock at the door….

Commissioned by National Theatre of Scotland. A National Theatre of Scotland new writing project in partnership with Tron Theatre and Traverse Theatre.
