Boy Parts by Eliza Clark

A pitch-black psychological thriller based on the critically acclaimed debut novel by Eliza Clark. Premiered at Soho Theatre, London.

'A striking and visceral adaptation.. captures all the humour of Irina's complex life, as well as those difficult moments that make a perfect thriller'

* The Stage *

'Thrilling and frankly terrifying... breathlessly compulsive, edge-of-your-seat stuff... unquestionably a striking piece of theatre'

* WhatsOnStage *

'Enthralling... one of the best page-to-stage adaptations we've seen... Greer transposes Clark's voice exquisitely... it's sharp, entertaining, vicious, thrilling, morbid, uncomfortable, and alarmingly irresistible'

* Broadway World *

'Engrossing and darkly funny'

* New York Times *

'Brings Eliza Clark's subversive and visceral novel to the stage in uncompromising style... balances the horror and humour with equal grace'

* Theatre Weekly *

'Exhilarating and sinister'

* West End Best Friend *
