The Perils of Youth; or The Gall of the House of Sud

Multiple Venues Show Dates: 6 Aug 2026-30 Aug 2026

"Mother. There is someone at the door. We have a visitor, mother, at this hour..." An ancient house. An unseen apparition. A wicked old crone and her pompous, disgraced son. And a family argument that lasts at least a thousand years. But who should make the first move? A haunting dream riff on families, envy, love and hate, mothers and sons, and the pain it takes to perform a single gesture of love, the Perils of Youth portrays the eternal struggles that reside within the family and the collective unconscious. And the terror of being alive. Written in sculpted, rhythmic language, this satire of the class system and the masculine artist archetype is a play for those who love the English language and the power of words to captivate, ensnare and attack. Blackly funny, menacing and unforgettable new writing.
