Synopsis: | Maria has had enough of the world. Broke, misunderstood and frustrated, she can't get her magician husband to make the strange sounds in her head disappear. When her car breaks down in the desert, she finds herself in an asylum where the food is free, the drugs are kicking and games are always allowed after 2pm. But Maria can't run away from the cruel world forever. Inspired by a short story from Nobel Prize winning novelist Gabriel Garca Mrquez, Dirty Paradise is a charming and heartfelt human story about dealing with inner demons, and voices. The piece will feature innovative use of sound and space to create a very beautiful, thrilling and sensory experience. Performed as part of the Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival 2010. Dirty Paradise was developed through consultations with individuals with lived experience of mental illness and auditory hallucinations and organisations such as the Hearing Voices Network and NHS Scotland. | |||||
