The brain controls the way we relate to our body, the world, space and time. When it becomes dysfunctional we become out of step, out of sync and often an outcast. A series of cases explore bizarre and terrifying losses of memory, recognition and identity in this extraordinary play which will both fascinate and entertain.

The innovative, unconventional and controversial Peter Brook took Oliver Sacks' book of neurological studies, The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, as his inspiration for this piece. Following on from his hit production Polygraph, Giles Croft directs a unique revival of the play, which brilliantly highlights the complexities of the human mind.
