Photos: First Look at GATE at The Cockpit

By: BWW News Desk Sep. 14, 2017

GATE is a story of love and loss that asks what really happens to us after we die, what we leave behind and what we will become. Set in Wapping, East London, Eve is guarding 'The Gate' and has four new appointments booked in. Nobody knows the gate exists until they reach it, and to reach the gate you have to be dead. GATE challenges the theories of the great 'thinkers' and asks, is it true that we only act on narrow material desires or do our wider spiritual beliefs still count for something?

Check out a first look at the show below!

GATE is directed by Sadie Spencer, designed by Alex Berry and written and produced by co-founder of Deadpan Theatre, Artemis FitzAlan Howard, starring Emma Dennis-Edwards as Eve, Wil Coban as Mark, Eleanor Henderson as Rebecca, Joe McArdle as Luke and Katie Sherrard as Esther. GATE opened at The Cockpit on 13 September and will run until 24 September.
