Unstable Table Double Bill
Dates: 21 – 25 October
A Double Bill of Works in Progress by emerging company Unstable Table
Lone Rangers
One female human discovers she is not alone. So does the other.
Physical comedy Lone Rangers combines clowning, monsters and a lifetime supply of shaving equipment. How will our heroines survive the first chapter of their perilous adventure?
One for Sorrow
Keith has been awake for six days. He will do just about anything to avoid sleeping. He’s been talking to his grandmother, even though she’s dead, and now he wants to talk to us. One for Sorrow is a darkly comic audience with a man confronting his lifelong nightmares.
The Company
Lily Levin and Janet Etuk founded Unstable Table in 2013 after they graduated from East 15 Acting School in 2012. The company aim to bridge the gap between comedy and tragedy. Commenting on their choice of double bill, they describe Lone Rangers as “a keyhole into the world of the wildly absurd and the very real” and James Ernest’s One for Sorrow as “sensitively written, but will leave you feeling quite bruised and battered”. Their previous work includes Catnip by James Ernest at the Arts Theatre (“touchingly funny”, The New Current ★★★★). Unstable Table return to the Blue Elephant having performed an extract of One for Sorrow at their scratch night, Trunkated, in May 2014.
