The saddest day of your life.
Perhaps you’ve already had it. Perhaps you didn’t even notice. Or perhaps you chose to make it otherwise…
Renegade Productions (Winner, 2008 Blue Room Judges’ Award) return to question our extent of choice, and its influence in our lives, through the absurd story of an astronaut and a cowboy who meet in a picture book park.
“He was beside himself. Her too. Laughing, at… well nothing really. But really laughing. Noses and eyes all screwed up, showing all their rotten teeth, and their stomachs loose and heaving. I’d forgotten that laughter looked like that.”
Tuesday takes you to a world where astronauts carry briefcases and cowboys feed pigeons; where sunsets can be disappointing and tombstones hopeful; where it all swings on a moonbeam – on one single choice.
Through a delicate flux between poetic gravity, satirical humour and unpretentious honesty, Tuesday asks you to take its hand… and reconsider.
