People, Places & Things (2023)

25 March 2023 – 9 April 2023 @ Singtel Waterfront Theatre, Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay

Synopsis

Meet Emma – professional actor, consummate performer, chameleon-like make-believer.

Meet Emma – pathological pretender, compulsive liar, hopeless addict. 

Committed to rehab, she desperately clings on to her alter egos and imagined personas, as her world spirals into a surreal abyss. Friends, family members and fellow addicts morph into figments of fantasy, her sense of self fragments, and she is forced to ask: which version of me is the real me? 

Together with Emma, we embark on a thrilling, trippy journey. And as we see, hear, and feel everything from her perspective, our own reality begins to fracture, and we find ourselves asking: which version of this story is the truth? 

Duncan Macmillan’s brilliant People, Places & Things is a devastating exploration of a person’s desperate need to escape real life, a riveting examination of the parallels between theatre and therapy, between art and addiction, and unlike any theatrical adventure you will have experienced before.
