High-octane, darkly comic physical theatre thriller with acrobatics and live music from Voloz Collective, set in 1973.
Voloz Collective bring REDACTED to Harrogate Theatre on Tuesday 6 April and Wednesday 7 April, both nights starting at 7:30pm. It's a two-night run, so you've got a choice of dates if one doesn't suit.
REDACTED is a darkly comic thriller that the company describes as the cover-up of the cover-up of a cover-up. It's set in 1973 and follows Marnie Makowski, who arrives in New Mexico searching for [Redacted]. As a butcher, a pilot and a priest reveal fragments of a conspiracy that spans a millennium, she has to decide whether to walk away or keep digging until she finds the truth. The company frames the whole thing as the meeting point of Fargo, The Office and The Matrix — so it's got a bit of the bleak, small-town crime, a bit of the mundane workplace comedy, and a bit of the high-concept conspiracy all in one.
It's not just a straight play, though. The story is told through physical theatre, acrobatics and live music, all from the multi-award-winning Voloz Collective. They're the ones behind the whole production, so the physical stuff and the music are built into the show rather than added on top. They describe it as an adrenaline-fuelled odyssey through what they call America's most absurd manhunt.
