Summer 2016. Britain has voted to leave the European Union, and low-paid art historian Elisabeth returns to the village she grew up in to read to the sleeping Daniel Gluck, her childhood next-door neighbour. The libraries are closed, new fences are being built, and no one will let Elisabeth renew her passport. Meanwhile, Daniel dreams: of his long-lost little sister; of the twentieth century; of art, of poetry and music.
From Stage Debut Award nominated writer Harry McDonald (Foam, Finborough, Don’t Smoke in Bed, Vault Festival) and director Charlotte Vickers (Sap, Soho Theatre/UK Tour, Roundabout @ Summerhall, Andromeda, Camden People’s Theatre) comes an adaptation of Ali Smith’s Booker Prize-shortlisted novel. As the divides between people become ever starker, Autumn finds connections across time and experience, and resilience in the most unlikely of love stories.
