A Small Enclosed Room with Alfie Murphy

Created by the "utterly fascinating and wildly creative…definitely and defiantly different" (The Guardian) Cian Binchy, this darkly comic tale explores masking, autism, mental health and fantasy.

A guru, a rocker, an artist, and a man walk onstage.
 
Or maybe it’s just a man.
 
Anyway … someone walks onstage, and they tell you things. Moving things. Inspiring things. Things that show you the truth of their soul. Their inner truth is so true, that you leave knowing more about your inner truth. 
 
But it’s completely made up. Alfie’s not going to bare his soul. He doesn’t even know it himself. His whole personality is a made-up character. 

But he still wants to tell you things.
 
Produced by Access All Areas and created by Cian Binchy (ITV, BBC 1, Royal Court) in collaboration with Shaun Dunne (How to tell a Secret, Netflix, Making a Mark) and Leah Moore (Good Omens, Bonus Content).

When the person you show to the world is always a character, what’s underneath? An authentic self? Or just some fabulous stories we want to tell?
