Pink Mist

Pink Mist is an important play as it is based on real stories from Afghanistan war veterans. It depicts their go-nowhere lives, their tour of duty and the aftermath and its effect on their loved ones. It is a very different experience as it’s a verse-drama with impressive verbiage and also an extraordinary piece of physical theatre with the casts’ bodies moving in synchrony to illustrate and illuminate every emotion in every line. Technically it is superb with over 300 sound cues which precisely punctuate the drama. The performances are all on point, producing outbursts of raw emotions that leave the audience stunned.
