The drug laws in this country- the drug laws IN THE WORLD - all
stem from this attitude that pleasure is a bad thing... In 2015,
acclaimed British playwright Leo Butler accepted an invitation from
former Government drugs tsar, Professor David Nutt, to be a guinea
pig in the world's first LSD medical trials since the 1960s. Monty
Python, Being John Malkovich, and Alice in Wonderland all resonate
in this exhilarating and original comedy as we watch Leo jump down
the rabbit-hole of a medical trial in search of enlightenment - and
a good story. Along the way he meets an array of characters from
Aldous Huxley and The Beatles, to Steve Jobs and Ronald Reagan,
whose own stories in the history of LSD are hilariously and
poignantly uncovered. Does the world still need a psychedelic
revolution? And will Leo make it back home in time for tea? Part
history, party wild fantasy, this darkly humorous new play
illuminates the drugs debate that won't go away and examines the
freedom we have to make our own choices in life, and death.
