Nikhil Parmar’s Invisible returns to Bush Theatre ahead of New York debut

Nikhil Parmar’s Invisible is to return to London’s Bush Theatre ahead of its debut in London.

Written and performed by Nikhil Parmar, Invisible will run at the venue from 23 May – 9 June.

Directed by Georgia Green, the production has design by Georgia Wilmott, lighting design by Laura Howard, sound design by Bella Kear, movement direction by Diane Alison-Mitchell, dramaturgy by Deirdre O’Halloran and stage management by Lois Sime.

Meet Zayan, an under-employed actor and over-employed dealer who sees himself as the hapless lead in the sitcom that is his life. Everyone else sees him as lazy, self-centered, and useless – if they even notice him at all.

As Zayan attempts to transition from being neglected to being notorious, we see how a man whose brushes with oppression, grief, and the sneaking suspicion that he’s become invisible have driven him to the unforgivable.

Invisible is a hilariously dark story tracking one man’s desperate struggle to be seen as the hero of his own narrative.
