DETAILSPERFORMANCESCAST & CREW HOW TO DISAPPEAR COMPLETELY AND NEVER BE FOUND

“What makes you who you are, Charlie? A name? An address? A random collection of experiences, a few memories? … Charlie Hunt is nothing more than a collection of pieces of paper.”

Marketing executive Charlie is suffering from the pressures of his stressful lifestyle: insomnia, drink and drug abuse, panic attacks, mounting debts, and the recent death of his mother. When he is caught trying to make some money disappear, Charlie pulls a disappearing act of his own – running from the office, leaving the city, abandoning his life and his identity.

Before long he finds himself on a nightmarish journey through lost property offices, records offices, seafronts, graveyards and morgues – the places where the detritus of society, the unnamed and unclaimed, are lost and found.

Fin Kennedy’s 2005 play was inspired by his research into missing persons cases.
