The Chrysalids
16 - 19 Jul
Director Shane Dempsey
Set & Costume Designer Nicolai Hart Hansen
Two hands, ten fingers, two legs, ten toes. That’s the way a pure child grows.
In a post-apocalyptic world, absolute conformity is imposed, and difference is met with violence. A group of young people discover they have an unusual gift, betrayed from within, they escape into the forbidden Fringes.
Written by John Wyndham, the author of sci-fi classic The Day of the Triffids and adapted for the stage by David Harrower. The Chrysalids is performed by members of our MA Acting cohort.
