Grym.Power:
A Dystopian Play
Grym.Power: A Dystopian Play
Grym.Power, a gritty, dystopian thriller set in Paradise Valley. A community in chaos, plagued by economic struggles, political instability, and crime. In a bid to restore order, the authorities have introduced the Enforcement Lottery. Sanctioned enforcements are granted at random, but at whose cost? Winners become figures celebrated for their sacrifices; Paradise Valley reaps the rewards.
Enforcement Handbook Point 4.3 – Discussing your enforcement with anyone is STRICTLY PROHIBITED, as accepted in your Non-Disclosure Agreement.
Haunted by the memory of her enforcement, Gwen, relives her struggles daily, plagued by the true cost of this political warfare.
Grym.Power: A Dystopian Play has undertaken an R&D.
Supported by Make It!, Valleys Kids.
R&D
Grym.Power has undertaken an R&D supported by Make It! and Valley Kids. This support allowed me to focus on two areas of the piece that I believe are most important – The Sound and The Power.
As part of the Commission Make It! are holding a Commission Tour which will showcase previews of all work in the programme, which you can attend:
Grym.Valley is programmed to be shared on 6th and 7th June
