Another Soup presents
Window
by Ron Elisha - directed by Dave Spencer
One couple is always naked - one couple is always watching.
Grace and Jimmy are in their late twenties. They have a house and a child and like normal things - TV, takeaway, and travel. But when Grace notices a rather athletic display taking place in a neighbour’s bedroom, she begins to watch. So does Jimmy. And before long, neither of them can look away. In a co-production with The So & So Arts Club, Another Soup presents Window, an honest portrayal of young married life, and what can happen when the everyday is constantly interrupted by the unexpected. Written by a winner of four Australian Writers’ Guild Awards, Ron Elisha's latest offering of minutely-observed domesticity and voyeurism promises to be an exploration of emotional truth like no other. Directed by the award-winning Dave Spencer and starring Idgie Beau and Charles Warner, this is at once a diverting and unnerving piece of new writing. Window is guaranteed to leave you smirking long into the night, while you lie awake in bed wondering what your neighbours might be getting up to. ★★★★ 'a gripping play about ordinary lives' - Theatre Weekly 'TOP PICK' - London Pub Theatres Magazine 'an enjoyable 80 minute take on modern life (...) expertly directed by Dave Spencer' - Peeping Grace 'Window’s initial humour and bedroom antics gently dovetails into the play’s more serious themes' - Breaking the Fourth Wall 'touches on many themes … in a witty and provocative way' - Spy in the Stalls Writer: Ron Elisha Director: Dave Spencer Lighting Designer: Clancy Flynn www.anothersoup.co.uk, Facebook, Twitter The So & So Arts Club: www.thesoandsoartsclub.co.uk Window |
