Autobahn

by NEIL LABUTE

Seven short plays that explore the dramas that can happen in the enclosed space of a car

17-21 SEPTEMBER 2024

A unique collection of one-act plays exploring how deep the chasm or intense the claustrophobia could be inside your average family car.

Each of these seven vignettes explore the ethos of perception and relationship – from a make-out session gone awry, to a kidnapping thinly disguised as a road trip, a reconnaissance mission involving the rescue of a Nintendo 64 to a daughter’s long ride home after her release from rehab.

Autobahn consists of seven short plays: Funny; Bench Seat; All Apologies; Merge; Long Division; Road Trip and Autobahn.

Autobahn plays at the Bridewell Theatre from 17-21 September 2024.

This show contains strong language, and references to sexual assault and grooming. Recommended for ages 16 and above.

This amateur production of Autobahn: A Short-Play Cycle is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
