Lava at Etcetera Theatre

Lava by James Fritz. An amateur production by arrangement with 'Nick Hern Books', produced by Bare Bones Theatre Company, directed by Javi Bone.

A small asteroid has hit the capital city. Thousands have been displaced. And in a town far away, a young man called Vin is finding it hard to talk. The only person who seems to notice is Rach, who resolves to find out what's troubling him and help him find his voice again. But when Rach's family take in an articulate and charismatic survivor of the asteroid incident, Vin's silence is no longer her first priority. How does it feel when the suffering of others seems more legitimate than our own?

Performances at 6:30pm on Tuesday 14th, Wednesday 15th and Thursday 16th July, and at 9pm on Friday 17th and Saturday 18th July. Runtime of approx. 1h 30 mins.
