Lost Watches
By Lorenzo Allchurch, Directed by Alex Helfrecht
Enter Lost Watches’ bizarre world of Beat poetry and broken dreams where forgotten faces can materialise at your front door and your flatmate can be a walking, talking sculpture.
Following his mother’s death, Allen is left with a place he can’t pay off and emotional trauma he can’t process. He hoards, he works dead-end jobs, he watches TV with a grumpy old man… all from the comfort of his mother’s dusty work shed. He doesn’t see a way out and doesn’t want to change. However, on the weekend leading up to the repossession of his family home, he receives some unexpected visits that lead him down a delirious path of discovery.
Directed by Alex Helfrecht (The White King, A Winter’s Journey) and written by Lorenzo Allchurch (Bollocks), this wildly hypnotic new play explores the edges of grief, growth, and generational divide. What will Allen give up to move on?
