The Experiment by Serena Berman

Hey!

We're Elegy, an award winning fringe theatre company dedicated to making small intimate shows with big ideas.

We're staging the UK premier of Serena Berman's 'THE EXPERIMENT'.

***************************************************************

“It’s like when I met you

I got split into two different people”

Sadie and Will are thrilled that their brief experiment with an open relationship has been a success. They worked out rules, discussed possibilities – they even wrote a manifesto.

But soon, a stranger comes to Sadie with a disturbing alternate history, forcing her to choose between her identity as a woman and her desire to trust her partner.

In its UK premiere, Serena Berman's The Experiment explores the grey areas of harm, intent, and the failure of language to bridge the gap between the two.

As a company, we strive to abide by pay guidelines set out by Equity, the UK's largest performers union to ensure a legal wage for all actors, stage managers and box office staff working with us. This is something we fully support, and across all our work fair, equal pay has been at the forefront of our practices. Therefore the majority of funds raised here will directly go to pay the cast and crew, with wages in line with Equity's guidelines. Some of the funds will also cover minor production expenses such as set, costume and props - but this will be extremely minimal. This is a production that puts the actors front and centre, and by donating to this fundraiser you will be directly supporting emerging art and artists by helping us pay them a fair wage for their work and craft onstage.
