Beskrivelse

Malachi's been looking forward to a fresh start at uni for months. He's settling in, he's got a stack of books to read and he's met someone new - Kojo, a musician with a megawatt smile, who's basically perfect. But something doesn't feel right. He keeps having the same nightmare sinking, crushed by the weight of the ocean and it's getting worse A beast grows in the water, hungry, relentless, hunting him but always just out of sight. As the boundaries between nightmare and reality fracture, Malachi must fight harder than ever to stay afloat. Kwame Owusu's play Dreaming and Drowning is an intimate and visceral deep-dive into the boundless mind of a young Black queer man wrestling with anxiety. It won the Mustapha Matura Award, was shortlisted for the Alfred Fagon Award, and was one of the winning plays in the RSC's 37 Plays competition. It was first performed at the Bush Theatre, London, in November 2023, directed by the playwright, performed by Tienne Simon, and produced by WoLab. 'A visceral but lyrical look at anxiety and acceptance' - Guardian'A joyful play that will leave you hopeful funny, well-paced, and engaging' - LondonTheatre1'Pithy, poetic, and viscerally evocative' - Reviews Hub'Wonderfully life-enhancing punchy and richly imaginative delivers a double hit of theatrical dopamine witty, contemporary and at times compellingly poetic a fleet, gripping piece of storytelling a little gem a must-see for anybody interested in fine new writing' - WhatsOnStage
