The Possibility of Colour – 18th November

The Possibility of Colour by Pete Carruthers

“Incredibly thought provoking, really powerful…” 

– Sally Ashton-May – Lead Midwife, National Nursing & Midwifery Team, Health Education England

“For
me, The Possibility of Colour is just a wonderful play that says so much about
human life, mental health and the culture we live in.”

– Kaitlyn Hova – Hova Labs co-founder, software engineer, design systems specialist, neuroscientist, UX designer, TEDMED speaker

For many, The Implant is an irresistible guarantee of eternal happiness; a life without suffering.

For others though, it’s a terrifying instrument of control, stripping them of what it means to be human and increasingly forced upon a growing number of ‘compulsory recipients’.

Designed by the AI-controlled ‘Vigil’ Corporation, The Implant is a new miracle device that promises to cure all mental illness.

Will Joseph, his sister Aisling, or his best friend Helen, be able to decide which of them, if any, should have The Implant?

And with the ever-looming presence of Vigil, do they even have a choice?

Who is ‘normal’?

Who gets to decide?
