A smartly composed exploration of greed, loss and the loneliness of eternity,More Life is an incredibly human play about technology.Guardian

A woman wakes up in 2075, in a body that is not her own. Fifty years ago, Bridget died in a car accident. Now, thanks to a technological breakthrough, she is back: her mind, her consciousness, in a synthetic body. Metal. Wires. But she's still Bridget, isn't she? She must be.

More Life is a sci-fi gothic horror, set in a future where pain and death are going rapidly out of date.

REVIEWS Icon

A creepy, dystopian thriller that morphs and shimmers before your eyes…a striking, open-ended contemplation of the kind of world we may already be in the process of creating.
The Stage

Moving and profound.
Time Out

A gripping futuristic drama about what it means to be human…a welcome addition to the canon of science fiction on stage…genuinely triumphant.
Everything Theatre

Masterful…a sensational piece of sci-fi theatre.
A Youngish Perspective

A quietly riveting and all-too-human sci-fi drama which excitingly subverts expectation…galvanising and richly satisfying.
London Theatre

Thought-provoking, surprisingly funny and genuinely moving at times…an ominous vision into a possible future we face.
