“I suppose it was one of the happiest nights of my life.” A group of artists, a trip abroad, an event that distorts everything.
Pool (No Water) is a play about the fragility of friendship and the deep resentments that often hide under the surface.
Staged in an empty swimming pool beneath The Metropole Hotel, this new Everyman production of Mark Ravenhill’s shocking and savage 2006 play blurs the boundaries between installation, physical theatre and live art.
Directed by Des Kennedy, with movement by Luke Murphy, the work is a sharp, unsettling meditation on jealousy, ambition and the corrosive nature of making art.
Mark Ravenhill is one of Britain’s leading contemporary playwrights. His other work includes Shopping and F**cking, Some Explicit Polaroids, and Shoot/Get Treasure/Repeat.
