“Practice makes perfect, but perfect is this house! And it must stay that way”
We follow the square lives of Smiff and Willow—a stagnating married couple—whose daily routines are disrupted by the arrival of an anthropomorphic, destructive, surprisingly stylish Jellyfish-person. As Willow desires greener grass, and Smiff preserves his perfect sanctuary, the two play tug-of-war over Jellyfish for a slew of selfish needs. Their bickering pushes the pair to clash in a crescendo, causing the crumbling of their sweet, crocheted, boxy, IKEA world.
JELLYFISH is a one-act, absurdist comedy coming to Bedlam Theatre this April in collaboration with Filfbag Theatre. Winner of The University of Edinburgh’s Depart of English Literature Play Award 2024-2025 (Guthrie Endowment), William Osbon’s “weird and wonderfully original play” will have you “hooked and baited” (York Vision, 2024).
