Description

Existential Figure silently screams. Everything is wiped clean.

The fabric of reality starts to fall apart.

Grieving Figure finds themself on a hillside.
Eyes staring back from the darkness.

A dual edition of actor, writer and theatre practitioner Adam Scott-Rowley’s most impactful works to date.

Performed entirely naked, YOU ARE GOING TO DIE is a nail-biting descent into existential anxiety as humanity stares down the proverbial toilet. A surreal meditation on annihilation that rests on the knife edge between physical theatre and performance art. Ideograms and archetypal forms offer a shared purge illuminating the darkest corners of the human psyche while revealing compassion and humour in the most unlikely of places.

THIS IS NOT CULTURALLY SIGNIFICANT is a brutally intense and darkly comic piece that unveils the bizarre, compulsive and eccentric nature of humanity. Thunderous and fiercely grotesque, this piece utilises Adam Scott-Rowley’s practice of The Sensitised Theatre to create a sharp political comment on contemporary society.

This edition was published to coincide with YOU ARE GOING TO DIE playing at Southwark Playhouse, London, in April 2024 produced by The Production Exchange.
