London based collective, Oddity debuts their first original piece, DREAMING REVENGE, running June 17 to June 21 at Applecart Arts in East Ham.
Dreaming Revenge is a journey inside a troubled character’s mind. Bea senses that Anna, her life long best friend and only support system in life, has betrayed her for the small price of a promotion. The lines between reality and fantasy blur and come back into focus as Bea begins a potentially dangerous spiral into obsession.
“You have a friend. And you carve a piece out of yourself and give it to them.” Friendship isn’t bound by the same formal rules or expectations as other types of relationships. Yet, the betrayal of these unwritten rules can be devastating...
The story unfolds in an office, centering the competitive nature of female friendships. Dreaming Revenge navigates the intricate politics of workplace relationships where violence and femininity meet - this show is not about women being pretty.
“A powerful play exploring a potentially dangerous imaginative relationship. The work was innovative, playful, moving and well realised.” - Audience Feedback in 2023
Dreaming Revenge will resonate deeply with anyone who has experienced anxiety, negative thoughts, obsession, or struggled with their mental health. The show has the potential to make audiences feel seen and understood and act as a catalyst for deeper conversations about the complexities of the human experience,
