Comet
by Kieran Knowles
This doesn't end with me. I am the beginning.
I am the shout – the echo will follow.
​
Charlotte has met a boy online – that's about the only thing in her story that's conventional.
The boy has an idea - an idea that will change the world, her world, forever.
A play about exploring an echo chamber, about jumping down a rabbit hole and losing sight of reality; about reaching an extreme and looking back to where you started, unable to find the common ground.
​
Produced by From Ground Up, Comet was the inaugural version of (RE)Presented – a scheme designed to give exposure to actors who left drama school without an agent, cast through open auditions.
