"The patients like to look at the paintings. It helps them to feel better about their illnesses." The grateful recipient of a heart transplant travels 4000 miles to thank the widow of the donor and to present her with a very special gift. But much more than a life has been lost. Written and performed in art galleries, England tells a compelling story for our times - a disturbing tale of transactions and translations, of culture and commerce, of one thing being placed inside another without thought for the consequences. Presented by two guides, it is a tour to the end of the world. England was first performed at the Fruitmarket Gallery, Edinburgh, in August 2007.
