LIMINAL
Event description
Five strangers.
One train.
Four stops.
One destination.
The Old Nick Company is proud to present an original work by Stephanie Francis, directed by Emma Skalicky.
LIMINAL dissects not only on the joys and shortcomings of life, and the torturous relief of death, but what happens in between.

Mike, a father and husband with cancer, is ready to move on.
Liz is the sole carer of her severely disabled grandson. She’s coming to terms with things.
Rachael, a young woman of twenty, is lost and beyond help.
Jake is your typical golden-haired boy on the cusp of manhood. He’s made a big mistake.
Toby, his best friend, has said nothing the whole ride.
Some chose to be here.
Others didn’t.
All have the choice to move on.
Only one can ride to the end and claim their second chance.
So, who stays and who goes?
Four minutes is a short time for some, but an eternity for others.
Any longer becomes deadly in the liminal space between.
