Steal Compass, Drive North, Disappear

Minimal and moving life awakening

Against a minimalist background of black walls and a scattering of blank chalkboards, Rachel Blackman unravels the story of Martin Charon, philandering video artist, university professor and father of two. Through the four women in his life (each flawlessly portrayed by Blackman, as is Martin) we learn about a man so in love with himself that he has forgotten who and what are truly important to him. Witty, insightful and heartbreaking.

Zoo Southside, 662 6892, until 28 Aug, 4pm, £9 (£7).
