The Wire
The Miracle of Reason By Nick Dear
When was the last time you were frightened? The mystery of other people is at the heart of Nick Dear's new play. When Josh and Amanda escape London for a weekend of passion in a remote house, a game of truth serves to chip away at the veneer of civilisation, but layers of logic are there for protection. What happens when they are gone?
Amanda McLeish ...... Frances Tomelty
Josh James ..... Jasper Britton
Music by Neil Brand
Directed by Ned Chaillet
