Robin/Red/Breast

Author(s): Adapted from Robin Redbreast by John Griffith Bowen, co-created by Sarah Frankcom, Maxine Peake and Imogen Knight Company: Factory International Running time: 55min approx Age recommendation: 14+ years

Norah is new to the village. Alone in the house, is that the sound of a mouse scurrying? Or something much more sinister—a woman’s scream muffled by the wind? Perhaps she is just paranoid—or possessed.

With the village closing in, Norah must fight for control of her body, fertility and ultimately her story. Will you be on Norah’s side—or is it all in her head?

Maxine Peake, Sarah Frankcom and Imogen Knight—co-founders of Music, Art, Activism and Theatre (MAAT)—return with a retelling of John Bowen’s cult TV play Robin Redbreast.

Transforming this psychological thriller into an immersive stage show, the trio join forces with acclaimed electronica artist Gazelle Twin and Booker Prize-shortlisted writer Daisy Johnson.
