Stephen Leslie Productions presents FAST by Kate Barton and Stephen Bennett
“How far would you go to find the perfect cure?”
Celebrity influencers, protein shake peddlers, diet pill pushers… we tell ourselves it’s a modern phenomenon. But is it really?
Fast is the true story of ‘Dr’ Linda Hazzard — complex, charismatic and utterly driven — whose promotion, in the early 1900s, of her own radical fasting cure, gripped the press and divided a nation.
Was she vilified merely as an interfering woman in a man’s world... or were there darker forces at play?
Following huge success in Brighton, Edinburgh and London, playwright Kate Barton and award-winning screenwriter Stephen Bennett have developed the original one-act play to bring you this full-length psychological thriller.
Reviews for the Brighton, Edinburgh, and London runs:
"In Kate Barton, the writer of Fast, they (The Park Theatre) have once again identified an important new voice. We will surely hear more, much more, from Kate Barton" LONDONTHEATRE1
“A powerful play that is sure to have you gripped from beginning to end” SPY IN THE STALLS
“A chilling production…fascinating and entertaining” THE UPCOMING
“‘Unmissable…this psychological thriller plays with your mind and emotions’” BROADWAY BABY
Shortlisted for Best New Play Award 2018 following sell-out shows at both Brighton and Edinburgh Fringe.
Running Time: 1hr45m
Age Guidance: 12+
