Description

Having finally moved away from the quiet village that raised her, Emmy’s perspectives on life are changing. Sally and Dale, the people she once idolised, now seem stagnant and backwards. Where does this leave her when she returns to the community she left? One rainy Sunday evening in the pub where she spent many of her teenage years, Emmy is forced to confront the uncomfortable realities of her hometown. Inspired by Arnold Wesker’s 1956 play Roots, A Rustle is a piece of new writing touching upon themes of generational difference, rural community and civil disobedience/activism.

A wonderful show, well written with superb performances from the three leads. Tense, thought provoking themes and humour all set in a local village pub where the fragility of the relationship between the characters is gradually exposed as the scenes unfold.

Loved this play. Cleverly written in a way that gives you a fly on the wall experience of the tensions and humour between the characters in a rural pub who were played brilliantly by talented actors. Grab a ticket!

beautifully written and performed, you'll fall in love with every character as every tension within the leads' relationship is subtly explored with depth in this intimate, funny and thoughtful show that tackles class conflict, activism and what it means to live meaningfully - get front row seats if you can!
