The Vessel

Rehearsed Reading - March 2024

Directed by Jen Davis

Developed as part of Hampstead Theatre’s invitation-only INSPIRE writers group led by Roy Williams.

After high-earning, loner scientist Morgan is diagnosed with an incurable, life-shortening auto-immune disease, he sets about building a robot body to house his mind, in the face of a crumbling health and social care system and fading family unit. But as his own body starts to fail him, building a robot willing to sacrifice their own chance of a life seems to become the hardest thing of all. A sci-fi thriller about end-of-life care, artificial intelligence, and the lengths you’ll go for a second chance.

This play is currently unproduced and unattached.
