Afterlife is a play written for 6 performers and is a compelling, stylised and highly emotive piece of Drama. 6 people wake up in a room. They are strangers. As the play unfolds the characters realise they are related and connected to others in their previous lives. They are in limbo. There are two doors in the room. Through which door will they leave? The play deals with themes of homophobia, homosexuality, domestic abuse, bullying, teenage pregnancy and suicide. It has been performed as part of GCSE Edexcel Unit 3, gaining students the highest grades. It is also a great stimulus for devised/physical theatre work.
