Dizzy

A fantastical adventure exploring memory and mortality, graffiti and grief and finding meaning amidst the chaos.

“You know them Northern Lights you only see in Iceland and Norway? When the particles hit the magnetic poles and BAM. That’s what Graff became to me. All these mad colours in the sky.”

Qamar, 15-year-old maths genius, looks for patterns in everything. Desperate for answers following her brother’s death, she 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 space known as the Axis. As she navigates her memories through the art her brother loved, she uncovers hidden layers of her brother’s life and her own, forging unbreakable bonds that defy mortality.

Based on conversations with young people across the UK and written by Olivier-nominated Mohamed-Zain Dada (Blue Mist, Royal Court), Dizzy uses an innovative soundscape in a captivating blend of technology and storytelling.
