Next production: Albion by Mike Bartlett
“Most other countries preserve their past. The embarrassed and insecure English discard it. And then complain when the replacement isn’t any good.”
Audrey ‘Albion’, a once celebrated English country garden created by a WW1 army captain to memorialise his fallen colleagues, has gone to rack and ruin. Audrey Walters is on a mission. Grieving from the death of her own son in combat, she relocates her family to rural Oxfordshire and single-mindedly sets about restoring the garden to its past glory – and in doing so, give life to her nostalgic connection to the past. But Audrey’s actions and obsession with the garden and its ghosts of the past comes at a cost to the living - as her relationships with family, friends and the local community decay around her. Winner of the 2017 Telegraph ‘Play of the Year’, Albion is a powerful drama with witty black comedy moments which looks at how we process loss and grieve … and our complicated relationship with England’s past, present and future. |
