Synopsis
"The patients like to look at the paintings.
It helps them to feel better about their illnesses."
The grateful recipient of a heart transplant travels 4000 miles to thank the widow of the donor and to present her with a very special gift.
But much more than a life has been lost.
Written and performed in art galleries, England tells a compelling story for our times - a disturbing tale of transactions and translations, of culture and commerce, of one thing being placed inside another without thought for the consequences.
Presented by two guides, it is a tour to the end of the world.
England was first performed at the Fruitmarket Gallery, Edinburgh, in August 2007.
