The Mirror Stage

This event has ended

Project Arts Centre, Wednesday 5th November - Wednesday 12th November

Brokentalkers present ‘The Mirror Stage,’ a powerful new theatre work created with and inspired by people who have lived through Psychosis.

Brokentalkers invited people with this lived experience to answer a simple question: “When you imagine a theatre show about psychosis, what do you see on stage?”. The answers are memories, and stories of startling clarity that have been woven together with movement, music, and arresting visual imagery to create a performance that attempts the impossible — to make the invisible visible, and the unspeakable speak.

The Mirror Stage attempts to understand what happens when the reality you inhabit no longer matches the reality everyone else agrees on.

Brokentalkers have an unparalleled track record for creating accessible, socially urgent theatre that fosters empathy and gives voice to those too often unheard — from The Examination to Have I No Mouth and The Blue Boy. This new work challenges stigma, deepens understanding, and ensures the conversation continues long after you’ve left the theatre.
