Story
SUMMARY:
“Bunker” is a One-Act play which focuses on 2 characters for an immersive analogy of mental health - a conversation between a victim of mental illness and the other being the personification of the illness itself. With this project, our team aims to break the stigma of mental illness, namely Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) by visually representing what life is like inside the mind of someone with mental illness. The "Bunker" itself represents the mind. There is only one exit - which leads to the outside world - and a door that leads deeper into the mind through a maze of tunnels you could easily get lost in (the sub-conscious).
Unfortunately, stigma is often an issue that those with mental illnesses must deal with, which makes getting effective treatment more difficult. If you have an illness like borderline personality disorder (BPD), that means you have to handle the symptoms of your disease while also dealing with the preconceptions of others.
The goal is to raise the funds to perform this play at the Camden Fringe Festival in London for August 2020. Any excess proceeds would be divided among mental health charities. Together, we aim to change perceptions in a medium that is both entertaining and thought-provoking - would love to perform it in a REAL Bunker one day too!
We want to be able to pay everyone for their work. We don't want people to have to work for no pay or the vague promise of profit share! If you cant donate, please consider sharing this post and helping us spread the word! It would mean the world to us
