The White Lotus and Harry Potter star Jason Isaacs will lend his voice to Lost Watches, a surreal new play coming to Park Theatre this July.
Written by Lorenzo Allchurch (Bollocks) and directed by Alex Helfrecht (The White King), the genre-defying psychological absurdist drama is described as a darkly comic meditation on memory, mental health and mourning.
Following his mother’s death and his father’s absence, Allen is left, barely an adult, with a house he cannot pay off and emotional trauma he doesn’t know how to process.
However, on the weekend before his family home is due to be repossessed, Allen receives a series of unexpected visits that lead him down a dark path of discovery.
Over one hallucinatory weekend, Allen is visited by ghosts and converses with a sculpted head of Beat Generation author William Burroughs as he confronts the emotional wreckage of a past he can no longer repress.
Lost Watches will run in Park Theatre’s Park90 from July 30 – August 23. Tickets here.
