Set in a world not so far in the future when identity cards are compulsory and people are validated only by their digital ID in the National Database. But the system is crumbling. Identities are being accidentally lost, corrupted and even deleted. Identity fraud is endemic. But the all-powerful system still decides who you are, even if you are sure you are really someone else!
In this witty and satirical play, five people’s work lives, home lives and even their sex lives, are thrown into confusion when their official identities vanish with surprising and hilarious results.
First Performance 12 March 2009
