Big yellow holdall
,
salt and chilli eye-bath
,
queasy wub-wub soundtrack
: just some of the ingredients that made
Utopia
, written by
Dennis Kelly
, one of the
best, most original dramas
of last year. A group of internet forum posters with an interest in graphic novels are thrown together when one of them gets hold of the
mysterious Utopia manuscript
. It's thought to be the work of a
mad scientist
, alludes to the mysterious Network and Mr Rabbit, and it may contain an incredible but elusive secret about "something big". Whatever its significance, it seems a lot of people want it and they will kill for it. So the band of socially odd internet nerds goes on the run, increasingly losing all sense of right and wrong along the way.
FRSC Utopia Film Club will screen two episodes during a night - three weeks, three nights, six episodes, original audio.
