The Nuclear Plays - Fission/Reactor

Work:: The Nuclear Plays (S01999939313)

Fission - When their father suddenly dies, estranged siblings, Lex and Jack, are forced into the same room again; his ashes need scattering. But who their father was and what he really wanted seems to have been ripped apart, split between the two of them. A playful examination of family, reconnection and sibling rivalry, Fission takes the audience through nuclear laboratories, wakes and the Lake District. Reactor - "I'm completely sealed up. You're incognito at work, just another white suit and gasmask going about business... It's a great job if you don't feel like talking to people." In this shattering play, Jim navigates life at a nuclear reactor, the loneliness of mental illness in the workplace, and the difficulty connecting with a world from which he seals off every day. Reactor originally began development at Pants on Fire's Shorts Festival.
