Details

Something terrible has happened. A small group of survivors find each other and live in a roughly assembled camp. The dark is creeping in - and so are personal conflicts. Then a child arrives, mute and alone. They tell stories around their makeshift fire, and discover that even when we lose everything, the one thing we still have is a story to tell. Scatter Like Ash is the debut production from Plunger, a collaboration between award-winning director Ben Mills and Royal Court Young Writers Programme graduate Nathan D'Arcy Roberts. It blends stories from the local community with a stark vision of the future to create a unique theatrical experience, and explores the role of storytelling in society, asking how we go forward when all we have left are words. This performance is a work-in-progress.
