ISAAC CAME HOME FROM THE MOUNTAIN

(As movement support and fight director to Nancy Kettle)

​

Longlisted for The Bruntwood Prize, the World Premiere of Phil Ormrod's searing new play about searching for a future in the dying heart of England.

 

"That fire - I know you feel it. If you wanted, you could take everything …"

 

Bobby's out of school and out of work. There's nothing going and nowhere to go.

A job with Mike seems like everything he needs.

A steady wage. A bit of self-respect. A chance to make good.

If only it were that easy.

 

Driven by a dogged determination to prove his worth, Bobby makes a devastating mistake that leaves him without the hope of a future.

"Every inch of the space is used well thanks to

fight director Mark Conway and movement

director Nancy Kettle.

Several of the gasp-inducing tussles, slaps and rough shoves felt very masculine and tantalisingly real." - Candid Cocoa
