Unit 4
A darkly funny new play about friendship, independence and the housing crisis, as two best friends' student flat turns strange.
Best friends Ari and Paris move into student accommodation, ready to embrace independence and build a home together. But as rising rent, financial pressure, and the realities of living together set in, small disagreements begin to expose deeper cracks in their friendship. When a mysterious puppet appears and reality starts to blur, Paris becomes increasingly suspicious of Ari's behaviour and intentions.
Their once-close friendship spirals into resentment, isolation, and distrust as their apartment becomes stranger by the day. Darkly funny and increasingly unsettling, Unit 4 explores friendship, independence, the housing crisis, and what can happen when something toxic is allowed to grow.
