THE MISSING THEATRE COMPANY
An international collective made up of perfomers, sound engineers, musicians and visual artists. Established in March of 2023 by Marguerite Vermersch.
Following a successful R&D at the IOU Theatre in Halifax, The Missing Theatre is currently preparing for their debut London performance at Theatre Deli on November 15th-16th
IOHTBA dives into the cyclical and absurd stages of depression through the story of a young person who is living alone and dismissing the outside world. We witness the character’s cry for help through listening carefully to an automated voice from a crisis line and following rigourosly to its instructions...
Audience responses:
"Such fluid movement! Script was excellent: timing, repetition, imagery, overlap in voices... Enjoyed how outside of time and space it was, but also so relatable to contemporary experience."
''I felt like I was in that room with her, feeling everything she felt... It’s the day-to-day tasks that make you feel most alone, not lonely... This is life: this is what everyone feels at some point in their life."
''Reminded me of my teenage years: the imagined world, strange conversations that I’d invent... Being alone is such a unique, yet universal experience."
