Details

An intimate story of backstage relationships revealing an operatic dimension, both in its music and themes of love, jealousy, fear and betrayal, Dress Rehearsal, the play, follows a group of disparate performers in real time and space over one evening in the upstairs of a Northern pub. Alternating between onstage and backstage, the evening brings with it the suggestion of failed ambition, unhealthy dependencies and stifling possessiveness. Yet at the same time there emerges deep love, loyalty, humour and camaraderie.
