Hangman

Two killers. One system. What happens when a prison executioner traumatised by the nature of his job has a chance encounter with a sadistic serial killer? Combining dark comedy and absurdist theatre, Hangman challenges the moral compass of the audience and explores themes of guilt, redemption, and the human psyche. Should the death penalty be abolished? Should executing people ever be considered an occupation? As the play delves deep into the psyche of two killers myriad philosophical questions will leave audiences on the edge of their seats, craving for more, and contemplating long after the curtains close.
