Inspired by the strange world of Netherlandish proverbs, The Inverted Realm is a visually driven psychological drama where illusion distorts reality and nothing is quite as it seems. As lost souls move through a world of absurdity, faith, self-deception and inner conflict, the play explores how people become trapped in patterns of thought they cannot see. Surreal, intimate and unsettling, this is a theatrical journey through human folly towards the possibility of hope.
