Description
A searing new play by a Bruntwood Prize-winning playwright.
Alex has his flat. His home. He s building a life with Clare. Nothing can derail his happiness - he just wishes those kids would stop hanging round outside his house. But they re just kids, with nothing to do. They re not dangerous, right?
Microcosm premiered at the Soho Theatre, London, in May 2014.
"Builds suspense marvellously... chilling and ominous." - The Upcoming
"Compelling... Hartley is particularly perceptive in capturing the sweet strangeness of people, their moments of agreement and rapture, hilarity and repugnance." - Exeunt Magazine
"Hitchcockian... an intelligent and considered piece of theatre" - Huffington Post
