BRAINS

Day Job Theatre in association with Theatre Peckham presents BRAINS

Kiera was a zombiephile (a fan of all undead media) but now finds the tropes hit a bit too close to home. Henry prefers rom-coms and couldn’t spot a cliché until it was biting him in the face. The contrast between Kiera’s laissez-faire attitude towards getting eaten and Henry’s desperation to make it through to the other side prompts the question, “Why survive when there’s nothing to live for?”.
