LITTLE BROTHER Comes to Soho Theatre This Autumn
Performances run Thursday 16 October – Saturday 22 November.
Soho Theatre has announced its 2025 theatre season, with the world premiere of LITTLE BROTHER by Eoin McAndrew, winner of the 2024 Verity Bargate Award, this October. Tickets are now on sale.
Brigid's brother Niall calls her unexpectedly in the middle of the night. After he ends up in hospital, Niall moves back in with Brigid to get his life back on track. LITTLE BROTHER is a compelling exploration of a sibling relationship set in modern-day Belfast directed by Emma Jordan, award-winning Artistic Director of Prime Cut Productions. It is produced by Soho Theatre.
LITTLE BROTHER was selected from 1,700 entries to the Verity Bargate Award, Soho Theatre's prestigious new writing award sponsored by Character 7, the producers of The Night Manager and Culprits. The award's main prize is an £8,000 prize and a fully staged production at Soho Theatre. The judging panel, chaired by Character 7's Stephen Garett, was composed of industry experts: Moira Buffini, Anupama Chandrasekhar, Alan Cumming, Anthony Lau and Rebecca Lucy TAYLOR AKA Self Esteem.
Earlier this month, Sam Grabiner's Boys on the Verge of Tears, winner of the 2022 Verity Bargate Award, in a production directed by James Macdonald, was nominated for an Olivier Award in the Best New Production in Affiliate Theatre category following a critically acclaimed run at Soho Theatre last year. “Wild, thrilling, brutally honest and beautifully tender. This is a truly extraordinary new play.”
