A script no one has seen. An experience you’ll never forget.
The most performed playwright in the history of Iranian theatre Nassim Soleimanpour (White Rabbit, Red Rabbit, NASSIM) and acclaimed director Omar Elerian (NASSIM, Misty, two Palestinians go dogging) push the boundaries of Soleimanpour’s signature unrehearsed cold reads to the next level.
Every night, a new performer takes to the stage not knowing what is going to be asked of them. Unrehearsed and deliberately unprepared, the script becomes their only guide as they journey through the story of the playwright, connected live from his home in Berlin. (Or is he?) Past performances overseas have seen the likes of Emilia Clarke, Meera Syal, Fiona Shaw and Benedict Wong take the stage.
ECHO: Every Cold-Hearted Oxygen invites you to consider what home means to you. Fusing technology with the oldest tricks in the book, this an ambitious, magical and profound production where no one travels yet everybody is present.
