Playing on a Compulsion

‘OCD’ is a devised physical theatre piece exploring what it’s like living with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. What does it do to a person and the people around them? How does one fight these intrusive thoughts? And how does one cope out there? The director herself has Tourette’s Syndrome, anxiety disorder, attention deficit disorder and, of course, OCD. She and the cast share not only about creating a performance but also about how devising the production allowed some reflection.
