Pyrenees

Pyrenees by David Grieg asks questions of a man found, remembering nothing, in the snow at the foot of the Pyrenees. Who is he? Why is he here? Which version of his past should he accept, and can he re-enter someone else's story of his life?

A man is found lying in the snow at the foot of the Pyrenees. Who is he really?

Pyrenees premiered at the Tron Theatre, Glasgow in March 2005 in a co-production between Paines Plough and the Tron Theatre Company, Glasgow, in association with Palace Theatre, Watford.

A man is found lying in the snow at the foot of the Pyrenees. He remembers nothing. He believes he is British. A young woman from the British Consulate is dispatched to confirm his nationality and to try to piece together his identity. When Vivienne, a middle aged woman from Edinburgh arrives, she presents him with a history he doesn't recognise. Is he really who she says he is? As the snow melts on the mountains the man must decide which reality he will enter - Anna's or Vivienne's? Who is he really?
