Two puppets set up the first human-free theatre company in a grubby old building. They signed the forms, fuelled by the hope of creating theatre that touches the heart and the mind. One day, they are arrested, accused of a hidden agenda to destabilise the country.
The Necessary String is a dark comedy about origin stories. It’s educational, experiential, and pure fantasy and fiction.
