Frozen

From the director that brought Recall, Titus Andronicus, Rhinoceros, Fever/Dream, and Mercury Fur to Toronto, comes a bone chilling production of Bryony Laverys Frozen.

One evening ten-year-old Rhona goes missing. Her mother, Nancy, retreats into a state of frozen hope. Agnetha, an American academic, comes to England to research a thesis: "Serial KillingA Forgivable Act?" Then there's Ralph, a loner who's looking for some distraction. Angry, humane, and compassionate, Frozen is an extraordinary play that entwines the lives of a murderer, the mother of one of his victims and his psychologist to explore our capacity for forgiveness, remorse, and change, after an act that would seem to rule them out entirely.

"[a] fine playso concentrated and unflinching that at times it takes your breath away." Observer (London).

"A major playthrilling, humane and timely."Times (London).

"Consistently surprising and even bravely comicThe almost thriller-like promise of the play's climactic confrontation is like a time-bomb ticking in the back of your head." Independent (London).
