Gabriela Flarys & Andrea Maciel: DELUGE

Deluge puts a magic realist spin on dealing with and overcoming grief. Blurring imagination with real stories by invoking a surreal, tender and humorous dreamscape. A comic exploration of grief, inspired by a break-up and over 40 interviews gathered via a social media call-out. In the wake of a relationship, a woman tries to contain the overflow of her thoughts... She ends up stuck in a ladder, fighting against komodo dragons, house leaks, holes, and jam jars that only seem to multiply. Deluge puts a magic realist spin on dealing with and overcoming grief. Blurring imagination with real stories by invoking a surreal, tender and humorous dreamscape. “Incredibly beautifully written, with an effortless alternation between comedy and horror” ★★★★ Spy in the Stalls “Flarys's intense physicality and irresistible charm draw you into the flood” ★★★★ British Theatre Guide “I was astounded by Flarys' broad-ranging vocal and physical abilities” ★★★★1⁄2 A Youngish Perspective “I am totally absorbed, lapping up every minute” ★★★★ Bouquets and Brickbats Instagram: @gabrielaflarys
