An Oak Tree

by Tim Crouch
April 1 to April 18, 2027

AN OAK TREE is an acclaimed, brave and challenging story about loss, suggestion, and the power of the mind. Set in the middle of a hypnotist's act, this is a vivid and absurdly comic play about how we fill the gaps in life.

STARRING Nick Crawford, the play is performed by two actors, one of whom will have never seen or read a word of the play they're in - until they're in it.
