Carving in Ice Theatre presents…

A sun-lit suburban backyard, four older women: Vi (Fiona Sneyd), Sally (Sara Young), Lena (Julianne Boyle) and the visiting Mrs J (Mandy Faulkner), reflect on their lives over the course of summer afternoons together. Lots of gossip about friends and family. Phobias and fears are shared. The afternoons run into each other and the recollections take on a strangely unsettling tone as Mrs J's cryptic chronicles of doom become increasingly bizarre.

Escaped Alone veers from menace to joy as Caryl Churchill spins light out of the dark.

Don't miss this recent play from the renowned author of Cloud Nine, Top Girls, Serious Money and Love and Information.

Dominic Cooke, former Artistic Director of the Royal Court, said of Churchill in a recent interview: “There aren't many theatre artists whose work gets bolder, more unusual and more provocative as they get older. But Caryl Churchill does. She just continues to push forward. She's a rare talent.”
