FOG

by Tash Fairbanks and Toby Wharton

"A master class in honest realism." ★ ★ ★ ★ ★  WhatsOnStage

Welcome to Gary’s world...

“A thought provoking, emotionally fraught and brilliantly written play”

 

 

FOG is a unique collaboration between a male actor in his 20s and an established female writer/performer in her 60s, and is directed by multi-award-winning writer/director Ché Walker, whose credits include Been So Long (The Royal Court Theatre and The Young Vic London), The Frontline (The Globe, London) and His Greatness (Finborough Theatre, London).

Two families: one white and dysfunctional, the other black and aspiring.

Gary and Lou were put into care as young children by their soldier father, Cannon, following the untimely death of their mother. Ten years later, Cannon returns, expecting to reassemble his family around him. But he feels a stranger in this ‘new’ England of broken promises and nothing could prepare him for the damage that abandonment and an inadequate care system has wreaked on his kids. He desperately tries to repair what has been broken, but is it all too little too late?

 

First performed at the Finborough Theatre, London. Neil McPherson, Artistic Director.
