Description Two men meet in the most unlikely of places - a hypnotist who has lost the power of suggestion and a grieving man who can only cope by using it.
A two-hander where one role is performed by a different, unrehearsed actor every night. Tim Crouch's award-winnning play is a vivid, risky and hilarious experience. Boundaries protecting the world we know are prodded, tested and bent, while our expectations of theatre are delightfully disturbed.
