“Spunky, fast-paced and acerbic…hilariously cruel” - Remote Goat 
Picture
Mish and Patrick have withstood redundancy, career dissatisfaction and the housing market, to settle into the tiny starter home that is their happily ever after. But then a letter arrives creating an impossible decision for the couple, one that forces them to confront the legacies of things left unsaid and what it is they really need.
Necessity is a compelling new play, by writer and director Paul Macauley, about our need to hold onto ideals and what we create in the world when our needs go unmet.
 
Necessity comes to the Bread & Roses Theatre after a hugely successful sell-out run at Brighton Fringe.

About the company: Founded in 2013, Broken Silence Theatre are Brighton’s leading new writing theatre company. The company’s previous productions have had sell out runs and performances at the King’s Head Theatre, Drayton Arms Theatre, Towner National Gallery and numerous locations in Brighton, the South East, and beyond. Broken Silence Theatre’s previous production ‘Crushed’ won the Best New Play Award at Brighton Fringe.
