Description
Young Ernie's "illucinations" have been causing concern for his parents, who take him to see the doctor. As Ernie describes his experiences - soldiers invading his home, his auntie taking on a fairground boxer, and Dad rescuing a famous mountaineer in trouble - these events are brought to life before the doctor's eyes. However, when the doctor expresses scepticism, Ernie is challenged to prove the reality of his experiences by imagining something in the present moment. Ernie's response is surprising, and the doctor is forced to re-evaluate his initial doubts. This play, written by Alan Ayckbourn, explores the complexities of perception and reality through Ernie's extraordinary "illucinations". With its unique blend of imagination and reality, this play is a thought-provoking and engaging read. First performed in 1969, "Ernie's Incredible Illucinations" is a new edition of a classic play that continues to captivate audiences with its timeless themes and clever storytelling.
