IKEA employee Laurence prepares to give a presentation to new recruits. But behind the scenes, he is in the midst of a crisis following a brutal breakup and the death of his mother, and IKEA becomes his only safe haven. Locking himself in the store overnight, his reflections turn to guilt, environmentalism, mortality, spiders and the imaginary security guard that appears from nowhere.
Refuge is a one-man play about loneliness and Western angst, mass produced furniture and much much more.
