Visitors

In a farmhouse at the edge of Salisbury Plain, a family is falling apart. Stephen can’t afford to put his mother into care; Arthur can’t afford to stop working and look after his wife. When a young stranger with blue hair moves in to care for Edie as her mind unravels, the family are forced to ask: are we living the way we wanted? Visitors is a haunting, beautiful look at the way our lives slip past us. This much-awarded, haunting, beautiful play explores the themes of warmth, compassion and wit. It tackles the harrowing issue of dementia with frankness and humour. Overall, this play is about love and how it endures.
