Our Walk Through the World

Our Walk through the World is a collection of six short plays examining the absurdities, tragedies and small triumphs of modern life.

In Tilly (An Introduction), a young woman films herself auditioning to become a surrogate mother. Colour-coded jelly beans prove the saving of one man's career in Rules of Assortment, and a football manager introduces his latest acquisition to an assembled press in Our Prospects ror the Coming Season.

A son is reunited with his biological mother in Relinquish, while in The Viewing an estate agent shows a couple around their dream home to a soundscape of gunfire and screaming. Finally, in Frisky & the Panda Man, a conservationist struggles to rationalise his feelings for the last female panda on earth.

Dark, irreverent and very funny, Our Walk through the World was first performed at the Old Red Lion Theatre, London in October 2013. With flexible casting and staging requirements, the plays may be performed individually or together.
