Dissociation by Reuben Wade @ 2024 Edinburgh Festival
This clever play is about the competing aspects of a person’s personality, and their relative strengths and weaknesses. From the initial mime sequence through real and dreamed scenes, it consistently explores the issue without psychobabble, nor easy solutions. Sean Davis, Fringefan.com
“Wade’s playwriting explores this internal conflict and confusion with a remarkable subtlety that I have never seen done before.”
Sophie Lord, EdFringe Review
Audiences loved Dissociation
Dissociation entertained audiences at the Philly Fringe in September 2023. Encouraged by audience praise it was remounted at the huge (3,500-shows) Edinburgh Festival Fringe in August 2024. Edinburgh audiences called it: hilarious; thought-provoking; a gem; a meaningful exploration of the existential quandary of self awareness; an incredibly beautiful search for self-empathy. One published reviewer rated it number 5 of 188 reviewed.
