‘It has survived for a thousand years yet few are aware of its existence. Once you come into contact with it, it has the power to control your destiny’

A couple are given an ancient talisman that promises to grant any wish. It starts as a bit of fun but gradually its power is made flesh. Using the classic tale of three wishes, the story is given a contemporary twist.

Be careful what you wish for!

Ruth Mitchell and Derek Frood have worked together for ten years under the name of Ripple alongside dramaturg/director David Prescott. Derek will be known to Exeter audiences as a regular member of Theatre Alibi and Ruth received the Wildfire Critics Choice award for her site-specific solo piece Coffee with Vera in the Exeter synagogue during the 2014 Ignite Festival. David Prescott is the Artistic Associate of the Theatre Royal Plymouth.
