Speaking In Tongues
25 October - 4 November 2023
at ACT Hub, Kingston.
Events from nine lives interconnect and overlap in a network of interwoven threads that meet and are drawn together. Complex in plot and structure, the play is a powerful study of love, marriage, infidelity and betrayal; it demonstrates the connection – and disconnection – between individuals, partners and communities.
Directed by Dr Cate Clelland
