A one-woman odyssey into the beating heart of the club.
Trinity is out on the town, ready to get lit. She’s come to dance, to drink, to forget her existential troubles and lose herself in the music, the moment. We follow her down a feverish rabbit hole into the heart of the club where emotions run as high as her fellow revellers.
Written and performed by Ellen Marning, this one-woman solo work cracks open the culture of clubbing and the shadow selves that emerge in the depths of the club.
Mega beats, dark comedy and raw truths propel this charged exploration of a night on the town. What comes to light when the shadow selves are out to party?
