Contractions by Mike Bartlett
Emma (Ele Robinson) is new to the company. The Manager (Kate Gabriel) is new to Emma. The rules are clear, the boundaries are not. Join us on their journey as an absurd battle between the personal and the professional unfolds, and the line between the darkly comic and horrifically real becomes blurred with irreversible consequences.
Contractions is a ludicrous, brutal and timely exploration of what happens when people become numbers, women become competitors, rules become unbreakable and work becomes play.
