The Rake
In 1953 Henry Molaison emerges from experimental brain surgery with no recollection of the last two years of his life, or the ability to form new memories.
In 2009 Patient H.M.’s brain is dissected live on the internet to a global audience of 400,000 people, cut into carefully preserved slices; manuscripts of tissue like the pages of a book.
Inspired by the world’s most important neuroscientific case-study, 2401 Objects tells the remarkable story of a man who could no longer remember, but who has proven impossible to forget.
2401 Objects is part of our INTERMISSION SEASON - mixing live performance and film on stage.
There will be a post show talkback with the cast after the performance.
I defy anyone not be drawn into this deeply moving examination of life, death and memory **** The Telegraph
