The Moth

Description

Elysium Theatre Company present
the world premiere of 
THE MOTH
a new play by Paul Herzberg

"You think you know me. You don't. So its time to talk.”

1994: a chance meeting on a train between two men, John, a  black British activist and journalist and Marius, a white South African ex-soldier, sets in motion a chain of events that will change their lives forever.

2025: the two men gather to share their story.

Based on an award-winning short monologue that has been seen all over the world, 'The Moth' is a thriller that deals with the legacy of history, the power of our actions and the limits of forgiveness.

Award-winning Elysium Theatre return to Ushaw House after their hugely popular productions of 'Othello', 'Macbeth' and 'Reiver' with a drama that will grip you from the first moment and not let go.

Praise for Elysium's previous productions at Ushaw:

"An exhilarating theatrical experience." - 'Othello' - the Crack

"Extraordinary... electrifying." - 'Macbeth' - Mirage News

"Excellent." - 'Reiver' - NE Bylines
