Two cities, two young people. Louis is triumphant: he has found the secret of the universe. But the line between genius and mania is thin, and Louis's family struggles to cope with his behaviour. In hospital, as winter sets in, he dreams of a girl called Sarah. Meanwhile, in the intense heat of summer, a family adjusts to living under a military coup. Checkpoints are springing up, neighbours have been arrested, music is banned. Worse still, their daughter's behaviour is attracting attention at school. Her name, as it happens, is Sarah... A beautiful, lyrical play by French writer Kevin Keiss, translated by Charis Ainslie, that explores our ability to transcend boundaries and look beyond our accepted reality.
