Mongrel Island Résumé

Mongrel Island Ed Harris

Marie is losing herself in her grey office existence, trapped by endless piles of paperwork and the same people saying the same things every single day. But as she is forced to work later and later into the night, she discovers a deeply strange twilight world where a new possibility for rescuing her sanity is illuminated by the fluorescent office lights. Commissioned by Soho Theatre and written by up-and-coming writer Ed Harris, Mongrel Island explores the mind and memory, offering a perspective of how the workplace can strip away our humanity. Combining madcap, surreal humour with an indictment of the corporate world's subjugation of individualism, Mongrel Island is a bittersweet, touching and darkly humourous play.

Mongrel Island Avis

A writer worth watching. -- Ian Shuttleworth * Financial Times *
In this tasty 90 minutes of wild humour tinged with quiet sadness there is a great deal to savour. -- Lyn Gardner * Guardian *
[Harris's] lines are sharp, his characters self-aware. This is a hugely promising piece of work. -- Dominic Maxwell * The Times *
In a play haunted by death, suicide, depression, defeatism and dysfunctional parent-child relationships, Harris displays a raw sensitivity to these subjects and a devastatingly vibrant turn of phrase about them... A talent to look out for. -- Paul Taylor * Independent *
