'Realism' follows the life of one man during an ordinary day but veers off from the commonplace to become a deliriously surreal trip inside his wayward imagination. The play's shifting, baffling scenes dive inside the mind of Stuart, as the banalities of a wasted Saturday - telly, laundry, toast, cup of tea - spin out into a series of surreal conversations with politicians, a telephone salesman and a foul-mouthed child from the seventies. His real interactions, with his friend and ex-girlfriend and parents, slide down into strange expressions of his darker subconscious and secret thoughts.
