CONSPIRACY

PRINCESS DIANA NEVER LANDED ON THE MOON.

ELVIS PRESLEY LIVES IN AREA 51.

JFK DID 9/11.

Three people sit in a room. The context of their meeting is unclear, but they are examining an infamous photograph and something’s not right.

They are conspiracy theorists and they think they’re onto something big; but each discovery leads to the next inconsistency, the next inconvenient untruth, until their whole perception of the world, or each other, of themselves, of the very concept of truth, becomes the object of their mistrust.

Barrel Organ's previous work includes: Anyone's Guess How We Got Here, Some People Talk About Violenceand Nothing.

WINNER! The New Diorama & Underbelly Untapped Award 2019. Supported by Arts Council England.

Dialogue Theatre Club: Thursday 3 October at 8.45pm

Dialogue Theatre Club is open to anyone who likes watching theatre and chatting about it too. It's a bit like a book group, but for plays and performances: you buy your own ticket to see the show, then come to the cafe to discuss it with other audience-members. No one involved in making the show is invited, so you can talk freely and all opinions are welcome. Audiences who saw the show at the Edinburgh festival are also welcome to join in.

PRESS ON CONSPIRACY

★★★★“A brilliant theatrical brainteaser" Fest Magazine

★★★★ “A fantastic piece of text by Jack Perkins, a show that epitomises fake news and fantasy” Miro Magazine

★★★★ "A haunting picture of a world whose future is void of truth” The Upcoming

“This is coolly cerebral theatre, but it also packs a punch as it makes us think about how anxiety spirals as we undermine our own certainties to the point that everything crumbles” Lyn Gardner for Stagedoor
