Never Closer

“WE’RE THROUGH THE WORST OF IT, AT LEAST. THE DAYS WILL GET LONGER FROM HERE.”

Northern Ireland, 1987. Deirdre is trapped between nations, conflicts, and lives almost lived. She’s getting ready to celebrate Christmas alone when fate (or coincidence) brings her oldest friends together for the first time in years. In this small pocket of time, they find an ember of warmth on the darkest winter night… until someone arrives with a new English boyfriend.

Set against the backdrop of The Troubles, this multi-award nominated new play (Griffin, Rodney Seaborn & Theatre503 International Playwriting) is a tender exploration of love, forgiveness, and whether we fight or flee.
