BRAND NEW SHOW!
Winner of the 2012 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, The Nether examines the dark possibilities within the online world, when technology and sexual fantasy collide. Following a critically lauded run on London's West End in the winter of 2015, this intriguing and strange show now transfers for it's New York debut!
Imagine a virtual wonderland designed to cater for your every sexual whim, whilst offering you a complete sensory experience, and total anonymity. But as ever, the dark side of this world threatens our very well-being - a young detective discovers the darkest cracks and corners in the system in this futuristic crime thriller. Jennifer Haley's clever and suspenseful play about this online wonderland is a clever and thought-provoking meditation on the voyeur, and the lengths we already go to to change what we are below the surface of reality.
ESCAPE YOUR REALITY, FACE YOUR FANTASY.
Whilst investigating a deviant name Sims, Morris, a young detective finds she must delve into Nether, and discover the Hideaway, a virtual reality that lets its users become whatever they want in this hidden sanctuary. The denizens, a teacher, a gentleman and a young girl are not interested in being liberated, especially now the lines between fantasy and reality are blurred more than ever.
