Originally a novel by Will Self, Great Apes is a hilarious, disturbing and dazzlingly original take on man's place in the evolutionary chain.

This manic farce explores the ideas of radical psychiatrist RD Laing on the 50th anniversary of the Philadelphia Association which he co-founded. His visionary ideas about the treatment of those with mental health issues, have now been incorporated into everyday practice. A fast-paced mind-bending play fun to perform.

Modern Britain. Moral chaos. Total nightmare. A new comedy about life in Brexit Britain, the lies we tell to each other – and to ourselves.
