Shot through with Hitchcockian tension, The Passenger is the terrifyingly absurd story of Otto Silbermann, a criminal on the run who hasn’t committed a crime. Directed by multi-award-winning former artistic director of The Young Vic, Tim Supple
“Lighting designer Mattis Larsen turns the Finborough’s ever-adaptable space into a kaleidoscope of claustrophobic scenes. Dim lights flicker sporadically, or plunge the protagonist into a hostile spotlight. Bright searchlights rake the audience when he tries to escape over the border”
