Description
A funny, moving and topical portrayal of the world in flux, Invisible explores the many sides of migration.
Lara left home convinced that hard work and talent would reward her with a better life. Anton was forced to leave his village and finds himself suspended sixteen floors above a city cleaning windows. Malik stands on a beach and looks out towards a country where women apparently walk around half-naked. Felix, a young businessman with a pretty wife and a lucrative future, finds it difficult to get out of bed in the mornings.
Amid the world of visas and wind turbines, commuter flights and nightclubs, fairy tales and tabloid press a chance meeting drives disparate lives towards a chilling point of no return...
Tena Stivicic's play Invisible was first performed at the New Wolsey Theatre, Ipswich, in 2011.
