Sunday Morning At the Centre Of the WorldSunday Morning At the Centre Of the World
Synopsis:
Sunday Morning at the Centre of the World is Louis de Bernieres' only play. Written as a 'play for voices' in 1999, it was originally broadcast by BBC Radio Three. Influenced by Dylan Thomas' seminal piece Under Milk Wood, it is homage to a period of Louis de Bernieres life in earlsfield, South London and has never been performed live by a professional cast. This unique production by Bad Physics will be a 60-minute sensory experience featuring a cast of eight. Blindfolded for the duration of the piece, half of the audience will choose to experience the play not only through hearing the dialogue, but also through the exhilaration of live sound effects, smells and touch. the rest of the audience will watch this played out in front of them as a performance within a performance, witnessing the effects created as well as the reactions of the audience experiencing them.
