If I asked you to kill me, would you do it? Scale the Face is a story of shared delusion, moderation and an exploration of death - told through examples of Folie a Deux and acts of divine intervention.
Scale the Face is an episodic play that explores concepts of shared madness, divine intervention and death through the absurdities of life.
Following the story of two brothers with a patchy past who end up utterly discombobulated & in a deranged survival mode. Tensions rise as metaphorical knives are pulled - and you’re invited to ride the waves of delusion as they come.
Peppered with thematic scenes that question relationships of self and other, Scale the Face is an expedition of chaotic trails that bruise from the same strike.
It’s time to ask yourself: If your friend jumped off a bridge, would you follow? How about if you had no other choice - Would you push him first before following?
