No, not the Radiohead soundtrack to lying comatose on your bed wondering if life can possibly get any grimmer, but a play about an executive in crisis who loses sight of everything he knew via a Sarfend fortune teller and a pathologist’s slab. Having published it in 2005, playwright Finn Kennedy won a prestigious Arts Council award for the script before it had even been performed – the first play in 40 years to do so, boding well for New Venture.
