The Unreturning by Anna Jordan
A British Northern Coastal town. Three young men are coming home from war. Their stories, set at different times over the last 100 years, are beautifully interwoven in this compelling new play.'A moving meditation on war and masculinity.. Jordan paints a complex picture of masculinity, its crises, its toxicity and its deepest feelings... the writing is sensitive'
* The Arts Desk *'A feverishly intense drama... visceral and insightful'
* Time Out *'An incredibly moving show, full of beautifully interwoven stories which are sensitively told, hard-hitting and immensely poignant at the same time... there is so much for students to choose from for a scripted exam performance, and there are beautiful monologues from each character to explore'
* Drama & Theatre Magazine *'Brutally and beautifully honest'
* Broadway World *'Anna Jordan's poetic piece interweaves three stories, flicking back and forth in history as timeless threads are followed, linked and knotted'
* British Theatre Guide *'An absorbing, thought-provoking piece of new writing... [Jordan] creates dialogue and especially soliloquies of shuddering power'
* The Reviews Hub *Anna Jordan’s other plays include Pop Music (Paines Plough), Yen (Royal Exchange, Manchester, and Royal Court, London; winner of the 2013 Bruntwood Prize for Playwriting), Chicken Shop and Freak.
