In Argos Archives, the main character, ‘Woman’, invites the audience to have their fortune told by flicking through the pages of the Argos catalogue. Using the ancient practice of stichomancy (the jury is still out on the correct pronunciation!) Woman takes control of her life and offers the same for our audience, through the comforting order offered by the Argos catalogue. The audience will go on a journey with Woman, accompanying her through the archives of her life, conducted by the ‘book of dreams’.
