When I say sleep, you''re free again.
A man loses his daughter to a car accident. Nothing now is what it seems. It''s like he''s in a play - but he doesn''t know the words or the moves.
Tim Crouch''s critically acclaimed play playfully pushes the limits of theatre: a two-hander, where one of the actors walk on stage having neither seen nor read a word of the play they''re in… until they''re in it. Shockingly moving, An Oak Tree questions how we perform … and whether we know our lines.
This edition was published to coincide with the runs at Avignon Festival, France, in July 2023, and the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, in August 2023.
