Imagine yourself as a file on a computer: that's you. That's what you are now.' 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 More Life is a sci-fi gothic horror, set in a future where pain and death are going rapidly out of date. It premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 2025.
"'Thrilling... a smartly composed exploration of greed, loss and the loneliness of eternity, More Life is an incredibly human play about technology... a play that stabs at the heart'"
Guardian
"'Moving and profound'"
Time Out
"'A creepy, dystopian thriller that morphs and shimmers before your eyes... playfully poses profound existential questions... compelling, with a vein of grotesque humour lubricating the flow of heavyweight ideas... a striking, open-ended contemplation of the kind of world we may already be in the process of creating'"
