A Small Enclosed Room With Alfie Murphy

“Bursting with energy and joy, thoughtfully crafted and very funny” – A Youngish Perspective 

In Alfie’s fantasy world, it’s hard to tell who he is – rockstar, guru, actor, shark. Which version of him is showing up today? 

Renowned autistic artists Cian Binchy (‘The Level’ ITV) and Anna Constable (‘Imposter 22, Royal Court) bend the lines of fantasy, reality and masking, as they try to figure out how to be in the world. In a darkly comic universe, with shark chases, a rap about Devon, and some lovely cardboard cut-outs, they ask: 

When the person you show to the world is just a mask, what’s underneath?  

Co-produced by award winning company Access All Areas and The Lowry, and created by Cian Binchy in collaboration with Nick Llewellyn (‘Madhouse’, ‘The Interrogation’) and writers Shaun Dunne (‘How to Tell a Secret’ Netflix) and Leah Moore (‘Good Omens’ Amazon Prime). 

A small enclosed room with a shark. What could go wrong?
