Charlotte has met a boy online.
That's about the only thing in her story that's conventional.
The boy has an idea - an idea that will change the world, her world, forever.
Comet is about exploring an echo chamber, about jumping down a rabbit hole and losing sight of reality. It's about reaching an extreme and looking back to where you started unable to find the common ground.

Comet is the first play written for (RE)PRESENTED its a new initiative produced and presented by From Ground Up Theatre Company in association with the Pleasance Theatre and will be directed by Tommo Fowler.
