Synopsis

'Who said smashing things up was a bad thing?

A powerful and invigorating new play from Olivier Award-winner Stef Smith.

Three strangers are about to face their demons head on. Balanced precariously on the tipping point, they might just be able to save one another if they can only overcome their urge to self-destruct.

Painful yet playful, poignant but uplifting, Swallow takes a long hard look at the extremes of everyday life. Questions of identity, heartbreak and hope are explored with vivid, poetic intensity.

Swallow received its world premiere at Edinburgh's Traverse Theatre in August 2015, winning a Fringe First Award.
