The Possibility of Colour
a new play by Pete Carruthers
For many, The Implant is an irresistible guarantee of eternal happiness; a life without suffering.
For others though, it’s a terrifying instrument of control, stripping them of what it means to be human, and increasingly forced upon a growing number of 'compulsory recipients'.
Designed by the AI-controlled 'Vigil' Corporation, The Implant is a new miracle device that promises to cure all mental illness.
Will Joseph, his sister Aisling, or his best friend Helen, be able to decide which of them, if any, should have the Implant? And with the ever-looming presence of Vigil, do they even have a choice?
Who is ‘normal’?
Who gets to decide?
