Lovers and Madmen explores the ultimate scenario of character versus self and isolation. Simon, a failed stage actor, sits alone in a dressing room, going over lines while arguing with his own reflection in the mirror about his self worth. Having lost someone close to him just moments before taking the stage two years earlier, Simon’s guilt has replaced his sanity and left him with the need to take the stage once more as a way of redemption.
