Dizzy

ABOUT

Dizzy is a fantastical adventure exploring memory and mortality, graffiti and grief, and finding meaning amidst the chaos.

Desperate for answers following her brother’s death, 15-year-old Qamar meets Stax, infamous graffiti artist and her brother’s mentor. Under Stax’s guidance, she dives into the underground world of street art and discovers the dream-like otherworld known as the Axis. Here, memory and imagination begin to merge, and Qamar starts to wonder whether some things simply don’t have an answer.

Based on conversations with young people across the UK and written by Olivier-nominated Mohamed-Zain Dada (Blue Mist, Royal Court), Dizzy is a hilarious, moving, and timeless yet contemporary story about the unbreakable bonds that defy mortality.

A Theatre Centre and Sheffield Theatres co-production, presented by Creative Crawley.

Dizzy is presented as part of The Creative Village, a partnership between Creative Crawley, Theatre Centre and AudioActive to develop and support the Creative Industries in Crawley, West Sussex and Surrey.
