To realize its story of the little man up against the bureaucracy of the world, The Overcoat draws its asthetic inspiration from silent film era classics such as Chaplin's Modern Times and Fritz Lang's Metropolis.

The Overcoat was inspired by a concept developed by co-creators Morris Panych and Wendy Gorling to create a play that could be told without spoken dialogue.
