The Elephant Room

Alone for a year, Theo finds a lifeline: Joel.

Watch as a relationship sparks and empathy turns cruel.

After a driving incident, Theo chooses a year inside an experimental rehabilitation program. This being an empty room with no clocks, no windows, just a bed… and a voice.

That voice belongs to Joel, his case facilitator. Calm. Funny. Bit cheeky, but kind. A warm presence behind a speaker.

Over 365 days, what begins as supervision turns into something far more intimate. They argue. They laugh. They talk about dogs, biscuits, loneliness, and love. And slowly, the real reason Theo is there begins to surface.

The Elephant Room is a sharp, darkly funny two hander about guilt, masculinity, memory, and what it really means to face the consequences of your actions. Blending theatrical storytelling with emotional gut-punch twists, it asks:

What happens when the voice guiding you toward empathy is the one you hurt?

Simply unmissable.
A beautiful piece of theatre wrapped in a breathtaking composition.

Only three nights... Don't miss out!!
