Innovative production inspired by a true story

This innovative piece is coming to the Drum Theatre from Tuesday.
The production is inspired by the devastating true story of the murder of Christophe Duclos, pushed in front of a train at Mile End station in 2002.
Michael lives alone and is entrenched in his daily routine.
When a minor occurrence threatens the fragile order he so desperately relies upon, he struggles to keep one foot in the door of reality.
Alex is having dreams; snapshots of the future which disturbingly appear to come true. Kate is very much awake. But before long even her reality is threatened by her husband's nightmares, as he attempts to prevent the inevitable.
A startling sequence of events culminates in a 'chance' encounter on the platform of Mile End Station.
Following an early preview at the Young Vic Studio in 2004, Mile End went on to be a major success at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2007, where it picked up two awards and was nominated for a further five.
