Physical theatre on the edge of mime and theatre
Duration 50mins / For everyone
Enthralling visual tale combining movement, live music and new writing. The Gambler is the story of Edgar, an old man trapped in his past. As he confronts his addiction, he wonders if his decisions were truly his own. Each spin of the wheel recalls the promise of a life he could have had. He gambles to remember, he gambles to forget.
Founded in 2008, Theatre Re creates and produces visual work on the cutting edge of mime and theatre. The company has toured in France, Ireland and the UK. The Gambler was funded by National Lottery through Arts Council England and Haringey Council.
“Beautiful composition and certainly worth recommending!”
