Jennifer Haley's very cunning and equally creepy new play... bigger questions... are posed, implicitly and explicitly, by "The Nether," which is as smart as it is unsettling
The New York Times
Winner of the 2012 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, The Nether examines the dark possibilities within the online world, when technology and sexual fantasy collide. Following a critically lauded run on London's West End in the winter of 2015, and a New York transfer, Jennifer Haley's sleeper hit has its West Coast premiere at the San Francisco Playhouse.
Imagine a virtual wonderland designed to cater for your every sexual whim, whilst offering you a complete sensory experience, and total anonymity. But as ever, the dark side of this world threatens our very well-being - a young detective discovers the darkest cracks and corners in the system in this futuristic crime thriller. Jennifer Haley's clever and suspenseful play about this online wonderland is a clever and thought-provoking meditation on the voyeur, and the lengths we already go to to change what we are below the surface of reality.
Whilst investigating a deviant name Sims, Morris, a young detective finds she must delve into Nether, and discover the Hideaway, a virtual reality that lets its users become whatever they want in this hidden sanctuary. The denizens, a teacher, a gentleman and a young girl are not interested in being liberated, especially now the lines between fantasy and reality are blurred more than ever.
Directed by Bill English.
