Dr Heidegger brings 3 elderly people into his magical study -
a lecherous Colonel, a failed business man and a faded old beauty.
Dr Heidegger then allows each one to drink from the water of youth
- the effects are amazing to behold! But they only last for a few
hours!
Platform 4 tackled the themes of youth, age, lust and lewdness
and came up with a dark experiment of eccentric proportions.
Ingredients included:
Madness and mayhem. Dancing and Danger Lust and Lewdness Cobwebs
and Curiosities Magic books and Memories A Surreal Soundtrack
First Class Physical Performers
This show reunited the same production team that brought you Animal
Tales and 3 Greek Myths from a Lisbon Laundry. Regular P4 performer
Vladimir Ilic played Colonel Grigorovich, Imogen Rodgers played
Nadia Montpellier and Olly Parham played Neville Medbourne. It
featured a stunning original soundtrack from P4 sound designer
Jules Bushell, a dynamic set from Su Houser and inventive direction
from Catherine Church.
“A compact marvel of intelligent and innovative physical
theatre.” The Stage 02
“This was a production so striking one felt that the company
would be fully justified in indulging in a little self promotion
and move Platform 4 to 1” The Cornishman 02
