Third Angel, in association with Sheffield Theatres, presentsPresumption
Devised by Alexander Kelly, Chris Thorpe & Rachael Walton
November 17th 2008 - December 6th 2008
Show starts: 7.30pm
Running time: 75mins
A bare stage. Bare that is, except for the white lines marking out the (sometimes multiple) placements if a domestic environment. Furniture. Objects. Stuff.
Beth and Tom, the generic thirtysomething couple of our time. They play out the same situations over and over again. Questions asked, answers not listened to.
Presumption is a story about love. Not romantic, thrill of passion love, not unconditional, unquestioned love. Everyday what shall we have for dinner, will you be in later, expecting to go on living together - well what else would we do? - love.
Internationally acclaimed company Third Angel deconstructs a relationship, and the theatrical tricks used to represent it, with inimitable humour, visual flair and a beautifully intimate performance style.

"Clever, honest... Provocative, surprising and oddly affecting"
