The Faith Machine by Alexi Kaye Campbell

Travelling from America to Britain to a remote Greek island, The Faith Machine explores the relationship between faith and capitalism and asks fundamental questions about the true meaning of love. On a beautiful September morning in New York, Sophie forces Tom into a decision. The choice he makes, and the events of that day, will change their lives for ever. Alexi Kaye Campbell's play The Faith Machine premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 2011.

* Financial Times *

'The play is blessed with a palpable generosity of spirit and many moments of sly humour'

* Telegraph *

'Ambitious, impassioned and eloquent, with some of the best laughs since Clybourne Park'

* The Times *
