The Fact of the Matter

About the production

Our lawyer is as sharp as a button. His mastery of argument makes him the most sought after barrister in the city.

But when he opens the biggest case of his life his world turns outside-in. As his mind loses grip with reality, and his powers of articulation abandon him, he becomes trapped in his own fantastical case.

Can he find the words he needs to escape his own madness?

Inspired by ‘The Man who Mistook his Wife for a Hat’, this show by Access All Areas’ Black Cab Company is an incredible story of the power of speech presented by a talented group of actors with learning disabilities.
