A woman wakes up in 2075, in a body that is not her own.
Fifty years ago, Bridget died in a car accident. Now, thanks to a technological breakthrough, she is back: her mind, her consciousness, in a synthetic body. Metal. Wires. But she’s still Bridget, isn’t she? She must be.
More Life is a thrilling exploration of what it means to be human; a sci-fi gothic horror set in a future where pain and death are going rapidly out of date.
They say the first person to live forever has already been born. This is the world they are making for us.
Our new show will play at London’s Royal Court Theatre from 6th February – 8th March 2025.
