LONDON PREMIERE

The Gate Theatre in association with Opera Holland Park present

SUSURRUS

DAVID LEDDY

19 July - 1 August 2010
HOLLAND PARK GARDENS, STABLE YARD, HOLLAND PARK, LONDON, W8 6LU

A play without actors, without a stage and with only one person in the audience.

Part radio play, part avant-garde sonic art, part lesson in bird dissection and part stroll in the park.

"The brilliance of David Leddy's SUSURRUS…
is both a clever refraction of Shakespeare's themes and
a distinct drama in its own right.."
THE GUARDIAN

The listener hears snippets about opera, memorial benches and botany which fit together into a mournful and poignant story of love and loss which is "a sensual reinterpretation of A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM with a contemporary edge" THE LIST.

"The brilliant site-specific theatre maker"
THE SCOTSMAN on David Leddy
