Believers

by Bryony Lavery

Name one certainty . . . one sure thing . . . one thing you truly believe . . . Two families are flung together on a night of cataclysmic weather. Bruised, tired and seduced by the flow of alcohol, they wrestle with their differences until, suddenly, the unthinkable happens. Something unbelievable. As their versions of what happened begin to fall apart and their perspectives become clouded by suspicion, they turn on each other in a desperate fight to understand the truth. Frantic Assembly and Bryony Lavery follow the success of their previous collaborations ( Stockholm and Beautiful Burnout ) with this thrilling and highly visceral exploration of love and loss. Bryony Lavery's The Believers premiered at The Drum Theatre in February 2014, before touring the UK in a co-production between Frantic Assembly and Theatre Royal Plymouth, in association with Curve Theatre, Leicester.

Reviews

[Michael Rumney · Rating 1 out of 5]

Rain and Bad weather in biblical proportions and not one character cares about anything, result this is a boring mess, at least the dialogue was short.
