Resuscitate presents a collection of the sometimes funny, sometimes tragic true stories from the inside of the surgical mask.
'Rounds' follows the paths of six junior doctors as they struggle to balance the pressures of ward work against their personal lives.
Resuscitate Theatre is led by Lecoq trained director Anna Marshall, who is also one of the founders behind Bric à Brac Theatre, a Lecoq ensemble who recently produced 'Thank You For Smoking', performed at the Southwark Playhouse last March.
Through the development process for this project Resuscitate focused on the person behind the junior doctor. This piece has roots in mental health amoungst junior doctors, their struggle to have an ordinary relationship in their personal life and their motivations which drive them forward.
'Rounds' features physical theatre from Lecoq and Gaulier trained actors interwoven with video projection and innovative set and sound design.
The panel for the post-show debate will be made up of the cast, director, associate director and junior doctors.
