Swallow Zusammenfassung

Swallow Stef Smith

'Who said smashing things up was a bad thing?'

Three strangers are about to face their demons head on. Balanced precariously on the tipping point, they might just be able to save one another - if they can only overcome their urge to self-destruct.

Passionate, painful and playful, Stef Smith's Swallow takes a long, hard look at the extremes of everyday life. The play premiered at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, as part of the 2015 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, where it received a Scotsman Fringe First Award. It was directed by Traverse Artistic Director Orla O'Loughlin, and featured original music by LAWholt.

Swallow Bewertungen

'An elegant and glowing piece of 21st-century magic realism... [a] rich mix of drama and poetry, comedy and tragedy'

* Scotsman *

'[A] bloody great bruise of a play which borrows, magpie-like, from Sarah Kane but which is always distinctively itself. It has a shard-like lyricism that tears through the heart. It finds the comic in the tragic... a shattering 80 minutes'

* Guardian *

'In a relatively short space of time Stef Smith has established herself as a remarkably diverse and elusive playwright... her most assured to date'

* The Times *

'Dazzlingly deft... there are so many reasons to love this piece... a must-see'

* Independent *

'Smith's script is dense with tense and memorable imagery... packed with powerful language'

* The Stage *
