Synopsis
It starts as a typical love story – boy meets girl and sparks fly. An intense, passionate relationship begins. In time they settle down, have children and live ordinary, chaotic lives. But beneath the veneer of normality, a disturbing undercurrent is growing. Their seemingly perfect world unravels, revealing shocking truths about family, violence and what really goes on behind closed doors.
This production contains very strong language throughout, with references to physical and sexual violence and death.
Advance booking is essential as we have limited free tickets.
