Forget About Me at Pleasance Courtyard (Below), Edinburgh

Forget About Me is a collaboration between Despite the Monkey and Worklight Theatre, performed, designed and co-written by Dylan Howells, and co-written and directed by Harry Machray. Set in a remote north-east village, the story centres on a fragmented, psychological journey through memory, illusion and home, where nothing is entirely stable and the past refuses to stay buried. The show combines mind-bending mentalism and unsettling theatrical effects to blur the line between reality and fiction, exploring childhood, memory, men's mental health and the fragile nature of truth. Howells, known for his collaborations with Joe Sellman-Leava on Fanboy and It's the Economy Stupid, steps forward here with his first solo show.
