Passion Play

by Kim Harding | Sep 11, 2023

Falling in love is easy. Being faithful is much harder.

James Croxley is a successful picture-restorer. His wife Eleanor sings in a choir who will perform Bach’s St Matthew Passion at the Royal Albert Hall. Together, they’ve shared twenty-five happily married years, faithful, fulfilled and fading. Enter Kate: smart, seductive and mistress of James’ recently deceased friend Albert. Despite his love for Eleanor, James all too easily falls for the excitement of an affair with this beguiling young Kate, suddenly all too aware of the destructive nature of his actions.

From the writer of A Day in the Death of Joe Egg and Privates on Parade, this exuberantly theatrical, witty, critically acclaimed play pierces the heart and asks us to examine our desires in forensic detail. 

This play contains adult content and language.
