Description

A grippingly insightful play about a young woman whose social drug habit has got disastrously out of control.

Full of David Eldridge’s trademark lyricism within everyday family life, The Knot of the Heart is a play where emotions are high and relationships are sensitively written.

Beautiful and privileged, Lucy is enjoying a burgeoning career in television. But her social drug habit has become a serious addiction, casting a dark shadow over her future happiness. As her charmed life begins to slip away, Lucy comes to realise that the devoted support of her family does not come without a price.

Ultimately hopeful and redemptive, The Knot of the Heart is atmospheric and poetic without undermining the all-too-believable characters’ realism.
