In a room, high in a tower block, Isla waits for her number to be called.
Her only companion, on the other side of the wall, is an anonymous man who collects her stories. Today there is a new listener. He offers glimpses of the world beyond the tower, and what seems at first to be a small, if strange, conversation between two strangers turns out to be something more terrifying and sublime.
Enda Walsh’s Arlington is a dark fable of surveillance, connection, and the power of imagination.
Arlington is part of the Traverse’s £1 Ticket Project.
