Now You See Us: Hallucinogen by Jen McGregor

Hallucinogen is a work in progress sharing by schizospectrum playwright Jen McGregor, directed by Robert Softley Gale and supported by Creative Scotland.

21 is a newly bereaved young woman left alone in her deceased parents’ house contemplating whether to survive the night. She’s kept company by her guardian Demon, who definitely isn’t real – but then, neither is 21. She’s a memory belonging to her older selves – 31, who is trying to write about the experience for the first time, and 41, who is just here for the metatheatrical hell of it. Autobiography’s a difficult thing when your relationship to reality is this complicated.

This event is part of the Now You See Us programme, a two-day showcase of new artist commissions, creative workshops, film screenings and vital discussions responding to this year’s Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival theme, In/Visible.
