Resuscitate Theatre will present Rounds at the Blue Elephant Theatre from the 16th to the 25th March.
Kal is seriously considering sedating the next patient who asks to be treated by a proper English doctor. Dom just wants to get into the shower while there’s still hot water. Felicity is living for the weekend. Lucy got her last choice ward and feels like she’s drowning. Tom’s getting good at tuning everything out and would quite like to keep it that way. Grace is just looking for someone to feed her cat while she’s on call.
Resuscitate Theatre presents a collection of stories that are funny and sometimes tragic true stories from the inside of the surgical masks by following the lives of six junior doctors as they struggle to cope with the pressures of ward work along with their personal lives.
The show was developed last year and is directed by Anna Marshall. The creative team also includes video design by Herr Video, original set design by Naomi Kuyck-Cohen, sound design by Paul Freeman and lighting design by Katrin Padel.
