“I was up on the 16th floor. I thought, if I unhooked my belt, if I fell, would these people notice? Would they stop? Would anyone miss me?”

Following on from Transport’s 2007 acclaimed revival of David Greig’s 1994 play EUROPE at the Pit theatre, Barbican and Dundee Rep Theatre, INVISIBLE is a funny, moving and urgent exploration of migration, globalisation, and the consequences.

Anton, forced to leave his home village, finds himself suspended 16 floors above a city cleaning windows.Lara just can’t find gherkins that taste like the ones back home.Malik sits by the sea looking towards a country where apparently the women walk around half naked. Ann just doesn’t want to get pregnant, although she’s in her 30s. Dialo learns a new language by reading tabloids. George and Louise are thrilled to be moving to California. Felix just can’t work out where it all began…didn’t it all start 70,000 years ago when a bunch of our African ancestors left Kenya?

INVISIBLE is a multi-narrative piece that crosses the globe following a handful of souls heading west or east looking for a better life. Their search feels like they exist in a dream, yet not their own. Disparate lives become dangerously intertwined, driving them towards a moment of reckoning. An innovative fusion of new writing, movement and new media, immediate and fragmentary narratives are pieced together to create a snap shot of the 21st Century. INVISIBLE asks the question how do we define ourselves within the fluid landscape of a globalised world?

INVISIBLE is a collaboration between theatre director Douglas Rintoul (Barbican, Complicite), award winning choreographer Darren Johnston (Array, Roundhouse), Croatia’s leading playwright Tena Štivičić (Arcola, BBC), designer Hayley Grindle (RSC, Bath Theatre Royal) lighting designer Katharine Williams (Gate, National Theatre of Scotland) sound designer Emma Laxton (Royal Court, Bush) and a cast of international actors.
