JURY PLAY

Jury Play - A Joint production with the Traverse Theatre and Grid Iron, Juror participation is not a feature of our criminal trials. But what if the system could be different?

 

Inspired by the pioneering work of Dr Jenny Scott, this immersive play transformed Traverse 1 into a courtroom where barriers were deconstructed and jurors took centre stage. Kirstin played advocate Hermione Bell. Ranting in Latin was her modus operandi....

 

SOME OTHER STARS BY CLARE DUFFY

Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh & Oran Mor,  Glasgow March 2016

 

 

"Remarkable" ***** Edinburghguide.com

"Sensitive and enlightening" **** TVBomb

 

What if the doctors thought you were in a persistent vegetative state but actually you could hear every word, feel every breath on your skin and sense every change of light through your closed eyelids?  What if your mind was still active, still wandering and thinking? Some Other Stars explores a ‘locked-in’ marriage and Cath and Ian’s heroic attempts at escape.

 

When Cath sees a flicker in Ian’s eyes, she’s sure he’s still ‘in there’ and wonders if he wants to live. But she forgets to ask herself the same question.

 

"Murray, in particular, is allowed to excel in her creation of the trauma of self-doubt and of guilt surrounding those whose life partners are taken away without physically being removed". Tom Dibdin  All Edinburgh Theatre.
