Belvoir St Theatre presents
Song of First Desire

13 Feb 2025 to 23 Mar 2025

From the inimitable Andrew Bovell (When the Rain Stops Falling, Things I Know to Be True) comes a superb new play of passion, history and politics, intimate in its detail and epic in its storytelling.

Camelia is losing her grip, lost between the past and the present as she passes her days in the garden of her Madrid home. Her children employ Alejandro, a Colombian migrant, to look after her. But this house isn’t what it seems, keeping the terrible secrets of history in its stones. As Alejandro’s presence begins to unlock the past, it shakes a family that has buried its pain – and its country’s – for too long.
