Four classic telephone boxes house a multitude of characters, stories, arguments and lies as four performers struggle to make contact, to talk to someone, leave a message or just find the right change. Hang Up presents a world in which all communication is long distance or cheap rate.
A theatre piece set entirely in 4 classic K6 public phone boxes. Each phone box equipped with two miniature security cameras linked to an overhead video projector and screen. Mics in the phones themselves.
