Prayer Machine
Red Stitch Actors Theatre presents
Prayer Machine

12 Nov 2021 to 28 Nov 2021

No-one looks at strangers. No-one pays attention. Cos attention is a weapon, now. Short and Sharp. People keep it locked up in rifle cases for special occasions.

A pair of high-school lovers reunite in the twilight of middle age. They make dreams, and plans, and re-enactments. They try to remember, and they try to forget.

Who can face a wasted life?

Prayer Machine, a world premiere developed through Red Stitch's INK new writing program, marries hypnotic black comedy with a tender exploration of ageing and missed connection. 

In a place where the twin addictions of nostalgia and technology collide, how can you love somebody who isn't really there?
