Brother is an intimate new folk musical about grief, new beginnings and brotherly love. Reid is an aspiring artist and a young transgender man beginning to find his way in the world; Jackson is his smart and focused older brother, set on a career in medicine and beginning to re-navigate his relationship with his younger brother after years away. Their mother Cassie is their biggest champion, and the heart of their home. Everything seems possible and wonderful - until Cassie's sudden death causes the brothers to lose their most important lifeline, and contemplate the loss of their childhood home and all the memories it holds.
Brother is a workshop production. Please note that there is a content warning in place for the show due to references to death, self-harm and domestic abuse.
The 3.15pm performance on Saturday, 6 March will be captioned and we can make a copy of the script available to anyone who might need it. Full details on the website link here: www.southwarkplayhouse.co.uk/show/brother.
