22 April – 17 May

Hello and Goodbye

By Athol Fugard.
Directed by Paul Robinson.
Presented by Treatment Theatre / English Touring Theatre.

Port Elizabeth, South Africa. Johnny is alone at the family home, surrounded by squalor, when a near stranger arrives. In one tense and desperate night a sibling reunion evokes powerful childhood memories as buried secrets are unearthed.

A raw and profound autobiographical masterpiece, award-winning playwright Fugard dramatically captures the explosive conflict that emerges when family ties are fully exposed.

Highly recommended
Evening Standard ****

Paul Robinson's powerful, intensely acted production

Rafe Spall is especially fascinating
Guardian

There is much to admire in both Fugard's writing and Paul Robinson's deeply felt, atmospherically designed production.
The acting is outstanding.
There is a spontaneity, rawness and sense of shared memory about these two exceptional performances that make this play very special indeed.
Daily Telegraph
