The Intrepid Theatre Presents...
BLACKBIRD by David Harrower
March 27, 28, 29
Blackbird is like eavesdropping on the most shocking conversation you've ever heard . . .
Una (Rhea Treece), a 27-year-old woman, has tracked down Ray (Steve Morgan), a 55-year-old man, with whom she shares a dark past. The story unfolds and raw emotions run high as they revisit the passionate relationship they had fifteen years ago, when he was forty and she was only twelve. This complex drama depicts a story about an unconventional love and the crippling effects of abuse. Controversial in its nature, it breaks boundaries and poses serious questions about society and morality.
An opportunity for two gifted actors the opportunity to stretch and flex.
This intense work was commissioned by the Edinburgh International Festival, where it received its world premiere. Blackbird won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Play in 2007 and was Tony-nominated for its revival on Broadway in 2016.
