Further performances are anticipated and your input is welcomed. Are negative comments being made about you? Do you worry about being observed or followed? Do you think that someone has it in for you? Do you worry that there is a conspiracy to harm you? Are there coded messages about you in the media? Do you think that others might control your actions and thoughts?

Psychological research shows that in recent years a significant number of people report that they have experiences and thoughts that might be described as 'paranoid'. In this performance Steven Ball will excavate and articulate the fears, the anxieties and the often all-too-real experiences that are reported. He would like to hear about any experiences of this kind that you might have, particularly if you plan to attend the performance
