Enter, Pursued
Synopsis:
Written entirely in iambic pentameter, Enter, Pursued follows the famous 'Bear' from
Shakespeare's 'The Winter's Tale', as he desperately tries to relive a past he never
really had.
A surreal comedy-drama about the ways we see and cope with depression: From
ancient myths, to Elizabethan England, to modern day - 'Enter, Pursued' is an
absurdly humourous look at nostalgia, self-destruction and a grief for the lives you
never got to live.
