The Jolly Folly of Polly, the Scottish Trolley Dolly
Fivebite-size pieces of theatre that deal with perception: the characters in these theatrical hors d'oeuvres find their view of themselves at odds with the way the rest of the world sees them. Bittersweet and highly original, these 'mini-marvels' cleverly break down the barrier between audience and actor, whether it's backstage at an opera, lost in the mind of would-be film-maker Margaret, or on a flight of freedom with air stewardess Polly.
