Title: The cut
Description: First staged in 2006 at the Donmar Warehouse, 'The Cut' is the story of Paul, the dystopia he lives in, and a streamlined system of oppression with a monstrous, throbbing pain at its core. He is an ordinary man with a shocking secret. At home, he is a loving husband and father. At work, he administers the cut. In a society sickened by his profession, Paul struggles with his conscience and longs to tell the truth. The main themes touch upon the individual's place in society and the arbitrariness of governments policies which set up the norm against one's morale.
