Time Out says

Playwright Chris Bush has been seen at the Almeida before, albeit in unusual circumstances: 2020’s Nine Lessons and Carols was an enjoyable – if short-lived – work that was essentially a sardonic Christmas sketch show about the horrors of that year (it got cancelled when London went into Tier 3). Now, following the West End triumph of her musical Standing at the Sky’s Edge she returns to the Almeida with a her first ‘proper’ play at the revered Islington venue. Otherland is blessed with one of those slight opaque theatre show descriptions that basically amounts to ‘you’ll probably have to wait until people see it’, but it stars Jade Anouka and Fizz Sinclair as Jo and Harry, a couple who are going through a break up and deciding what sort of people they want to be as they go through the delicate process of disentangling their lives and deciding what sort of people they want to be in the future. Ann Yee directs.
