Bran flakes, anxiety and gravity. The smallest moments in history. The largest events in the universe. Blink and you’ll miss it. A scribble in the chest.

 

Based on experiences both real and imagined, Scribble is an exploration of the complexity of obsession and compulsion and supermarkets, performed by one actor who has seen the script and one actor who hasn't.
