Purgatorium

Part of the Drama Finalist Performance Festival 2024

PURGATORIUM by Bella Marter, Solomon Harris, and Shahab Valizadeh

Silverstone Drama Studio, University of Sussex campus

Step into purgatory with your life in your hands and experience a journey through the end of time.

We find ourselves not only physically but intangibly tethered through our experiences of the world around us, soul bound by perpetual pain and suffering that transcends corporeity.

Through sequences of movement, sound and exposure to the suffocating darkness, your senses will be manipulated as you question whether you can really trust your own mind.

You will be confronted with the atrocities of humanity- or is it just a mirror reflecting your own guilty conscience?

Warning: This performance includes: flashing lights, disturbing and gruesome imagery, sensitive content, themes of violence and physical abuse, bodily harm; and intense sounds (high pitched ringing, shouting and loud noises).
