This striking one-woman show blends projection and sound to reveal the inner life of Maggie, an actress recovering from surgery and learning to live with a colostomy bag. While rehearsing for her boyfriend’s adaptation of the myth of Phaethon, their worlds begin to merge. His fall ends in fire; hers becomes a quiet act of self-recognition. Following its debut at the View Festival, and four-star reviews at Central Saint Martins, this is a story of faint, steady courage – the kind of female heroism found in small, honest acts of departure.
