Description: First produced at London's Royal Court Theatre in 1990, 'Rafts and Dreams' is a thought-provoking surrealist fantasy that veers between desperate optimism and desperate despair. While digging up the roots of a tree in the garden, Neil, Leo and Hetty uncover a vast underground lake which floods away the world. With Leo at the tiller of his sawn-away living room, the trio begin a voyage of the earth's watery surface in pursuit of themselves, forgiveness, love, and the ability to be loved.
