drip.The firstproduction was staged in a black box setting with a stageelement that lifted both horizontally and vertically.Thelighting design emphasized the suspended quality of thislimbo:we used only one blackout-all othertransitions wereon the fly.The sound score employed computer-manipu-lated riffs from a couple of well-known pop songs;the timein the music stretched and twisted like warm toffee tosupport the dream-like atmosphere of the piece.My musicchoices are obviously illustrative rather than prescriptive.We used the sound of dripping water in all the torture cellsettings.Again,the sound source was manipulated to evokethe shifting colours ofvarious psychological states.The over-riding impression should be of story elements driftingthrough each other like twists of smoke.My stage directionsand tech cues are the sign posts I needed to find my waythrough this netherworld and locate the initial production.I would urge you to ignore them if they get in the way andsee the play the way you want to see it.  \nDavid Young,15 February 2001  \n[Music under.'Walk Away,Rene'’processional quiets theaudience.]  \n[MUSIc out.]  \nANNOUNCER:[off…And now,please
