Four Cut Sunflowers at theSpace @ Surgeons' Hall

‘When light and dark converge, it is an act of creation…’. It’s the mid-19th century and Europe is being transformed by political and cultural revolution. In the midst of all this change, Johanna Van Gogh-Bonger is left a widow with an incredible inheritance: 400 unsold paintings, a one-year-old baby and a desire to change the world. This play follows the incredible true story of Johanna, who single-handedly ensured Vincent Van Gogh’s success. An exploration of grief, desire, guilt and duty, which illuminates the woman previously left in the artist's shadow.
