"I can't go back to yesterday because I was a different person then."
A criminal lawyer with a cool head and a passion for logic, David wakes up to find himself confined to a small, sparsely furnished room, unable to remember what happened the day before. With the help of his doctor, David begins to coax memories out of the darkness, before the details of a terrible secret emerge.
Razor sharp and tourniquet tight, The House on the Lake is a psychological thriller so crafty it's criminal. Mired deep in layers of deception, it's a puzzle of a play certain to engage the intellect and assault the nervous system.
The House on the Lake is a twisting labyrinth of playwright Aidan Fennessy's devising. Director Kim Hardwick leads the way through.
"Aidan Fennessey​'s carefully crafted two-hander is a workout for the puzzle-loving part of the brain, an area that hasn't been this attentively tickled since Guy Pearce's amnesiac Leonard Shelby stumbled through the labyrinth of Memento with his Polaroid camera."
"Mysterious theatrical thrillers aren’t exactly in fashion right now, but there’s something that’s undeniably, well, thrilling about being locked up in a little theatre like Griffin’s SBW Stables as a mystery slowly reveals itself and characters’ true relationships are renegotiated and uncovered before your eyes."
