And Tonight No One Descends

"The visuals are strong: surreal costumes, layered projections, and live camera work create a striking stage picture." “And Tonight No One Descends is an ambitious piece that seeks to grapple with the weight of pain, trauma, and survival in contemporary life.” — London Pub Theatres Magazine ★★★ "You can sense the hours spent by Jieming Lan behind the seams, quietly shaping something that’s both fragile and fearless." — Our Culture Mag

Inspired by the Jirai Kei phenomenon, And Tonight No One Descends is an experimental theatre piece which explores how pain is internalised and externalised in different ways. Will you watch from a distance, or will you recognise yourself in the wreckage? Through this journey, the play examines the universal struggle with trauma, inviting audiences to reflect on their own experiences with empathy and understanding.

Welcome to a world where suffering is currency, where trauma is art, and where pain is the ultimate proof of existence. In this surreal, gut-wrenching journey, a wanderer ascends a crumbling building, floor by floor, through a labyrinth of twisted memories and psychological wreckage. Alongside them, a stranger hoards gro- tesque X-ray vinyl—warped, fractured, and prized for the sickness captured within. Each floor unveils a spectacle of decaying dreams, anxious stagnation, and the seductive lure of suffering as identity.
