Next week at The Lamb 'Five Kinds of Silence' by Shelagh Stephenson

‘I love my family. I love them more than what you might call normal…’

Billy is dead, definitely dead. To make sure of it, both his daughters shot him. As the gun smoke clears, his family can breathe again - but decades of fear do not melt away so easily. A new life beckons. A better life. A life without black eyes and broken ribs. A life without a father for a lover. Yet every time they close their eyes, they see him: vengeful and malignant.

Billy is dead. But not gone.

Five Kinds of Silence is an unflinchingly honest and deeply insightful portrait of a family broken by madness and systematic abuse.

There will be a Q&A with the cast and director after each performance

This week at The Lamb Theatre, Spine by Clara Brennan

Spine is the story of Amy, a wise-cracking teenager who suspects she might have been relegated to life’s rubbish heap, and Glenda, the mischievous activist old woman with whom she strikes up an unlikely friendship. In a house stacked with books stolen from the dismantled local library the two women gorge on ideas and swell with anger. In this era of damaging cuts and disillusionment, has politics forgotten people? Can we really take the power back? Amy is about to be forced to find out.

EAST OF BERLIN by Hannah Moscovitch

Standing outside his father’s study in Paraguay, Rudi is smoking ci******es. It has been a few years since he left his family and their history behind him. As a teenager Rudi grew up blissfully unaware his father was a N**i SS doctor at Auschwitz. When a friend reveals the truth, Rudi flees to Berlin to invent a new life. In the archives of a library he meets Sarah, the daughter of a Holocaust survivor. Rudi’s path to redemption blurs as the past catches up with him and he is forced to confront his father and their history.
