"Am I endowed with a unique and awesome gift? My God, yes, I’m afraid so." Frank Hardy. Faith Healer.
A RAODS Green Room Production
Travelling through remote and isolated areas in Scotland and Wales, Frank offers, for one night only in each location, his unique cure to the most desperate and hopeless of people. Does he actually possess a gift? Or are these rare and miracle healings only tricks of the mind? Is Frank a showman, or a shaman?
Telling the story of Frank, his wife Grace, and manager Teddy, we encounter differing perspectives of their absurd and momentous lives and conflicts together. With each tale come new revelations in this spellbinding narrative.
Faith Healer was voted as one of the 100 most significant plays of the 20th century in a poll conducted by Royal National Theatre and has been named by The Independent as one of the "40 best plays of all time".
