Sam Potter’s The Unicorn to run at Arcola Theatre in June

Sam Potter’s The Unicorn is to run at Arcola Theatre this June.

Nina Productions presents the show from 7 – 24 June, directed by Tom Brennan and starring Alice Lamb.

The Unicorn is about one woman’s obsessive sexual behaviour, as she tries to find the balance between her insatiable sexual drive and what she thinks society expects of her. But what need is she really trying to fill?

After her life takes an unexpected turn, Andrea finds herself overwhelmed by feelings of frustration and depression. She attempts to combat her loneliness through casual sex, but what starts as a distraction, soon becomes a compulsion and she progresses from serial dating to anonymous sex parties as her life slowly starts spiralling out of control.

Sam Potter’s searing new play is a darkly comic and evocative portrait of a woman driven to extremes in this vivid examination of obsession, desire and despair.

The production has lighting design by Amy Daniels and sound design by Jack Drewry.
