Your friend is late. The meal is spoiled. A shadow has fallen.
The story of this evening, one evening and any evening. The story of a reunion, a reiteration and an act of betrayal. A journey into the space between opposing beliefs; between action and inaction; between forms; between friends.
what happens to the hope at the end of the evening is created by long-term collaborators Tim Crouch, Andy Smith (a smith) and Karl James. A new commission for the Almeida from the team behind The Author (Royal Court Upstairs) and the Obie Award-winning An Oak Tree.
