Synopsis
“222” is a selfless and diligent employee of a national newspaper, covering important stories to the highest standard. But when she’s told to abandon her work to write an obituary, her life is going to change forever.
Can she battle through an onslaught of grotesque colleagues and tedious errands to reach her deadline in time?
Deadlines is a claustrophobic portrayal of the modern workplace exploring power, isolation and how we keep up in an age of information overload.
An original play brought to you by Coventry’s EGO Arts and a community ensemble of young people.
