Overview
Jessie’s
sick of Leeds.
A city
she thought she would never leave.
But the
aimlessness of the people
she once
believed she would always need
is
suffocating.
Wondering
whether she’s had enough,
in a
dirty nightclub not too far off,
Jessie’s
blinded by the light of Allie Touch,
a singer
song-writer with a taste for big ambitions,
amongst
some other stuff.
Feeling
rough in the five in the morning sunlight,
Jessie’s
sight is fixed on the path that Allie lights
And like
a moth to a flame in the night,
She
ignites.
Written
in spoken word poetry and underscored entirely by original music created live, Electrolyte
is an explosive piece of gig-theatre exploring grief, depression and
psychosis.
Electrolyte
is
the winner of the 2018 LET Award and its development was supported by The
Watermill Theatre and Theatr Clwyd.
