Hypothermia
-Hypothermia (Vanessa Brooks)
"There is irony in every word and gesture, every
move and every moment shared by a company of five actors whose ensemble
work speaks volumes about mutual trust and respect.
Theatre at its most powerful makes us more fully
alive, more individual and yet more closely connected to each other. It
can also shake the passivity that history proves can be so dangerous."
Val Javin, Huddersfield Examiner
"this is a production of the highest calibre
which really should not be missed...I can honestly say that it's one of
the best things I've ever seen..."
Jane Sunderland, vitual-lancaster-net
Oskar lives in the state hospital in Andernach,
Germany. He keeps the other patients in order, sings opera and tends to
a fine collection of plants in the conservatory. In the bleak winter of
1940, a dark visitor arrives. Two holes are dug in the ice of a frozen
lake. Oskar has a decision to make... To live... or to die.
