Talking Heads on both their Courtyard stage (Leeds Playhouse) and in homes across the city of Leeds. A series of dramatic monologues that comment on humanity and the everyday dealing with themes of isolation, identity and alienation from society.

Directed by three directors, Talking Heads relies on a visual language to communicate not only a sense of intimacy, isolation and solitude but also a wider landscape echoing a sense of community and collectiveness. The scenography questions the very fabric of a sense of place, searching for the heart of Leeds in textures, architecture and lighting. Its intent is to provide a larger view of the world that these characters reside in whilst highlighting the struggles of both physical and mental confinement.
