“I can’t see you. I’m jumping, I’m going to forget about my suitcase and just go for it. I’ll see you down there Huw. I’ll be waiting for you.”
A surreal and darkly humorous exploration of the strain it can take to force a body and mind to fit, The Space Between My Head and My Bodyis the story of seven people who collide on an aeroplane.
Thousands of feet above the earth and travelling at thousands of miles an hour bodies, minds and boundaries are becoming blurred. The plane seems to be in trouble and the air hostess isn’t working right now – but its all OK, because Dolly’s packed the emergency kit. And knitted this lovely life jacket.
Gin in the Tea Theatre company presents the world premiere of this witty, touching and challenging piece of new writing from Royal Court Young Writer Catie O’Keefe.
