21/07/2014 - 7:30pm to 26/07/2014 - 7:30pm
Venue: 
The Bike Shed Theatre

Picture yourself as a bartender, sipping top-shelf whiskey and watching your customers descend into nightly oblivion. Your heart is broken by the world around you and, leaving the whiskey aside, you hatch a devious, unthinkable plan of escape…

A dark, boozy, grimly funny tale from the sodden depths of the Los Angeles underworld, blending a live soundtrack (devised and composed by the cast), detailed mime and the heart-wrenching humour of Patrick deWitt.

Ablutions is Winner of last year's Exeter Ignite Festival Critic's Choice Award.
