Saturday 16th March - matinee performance
The Royal Court in Liverpool is currently showing the world
premiere of ‘Hope’, billed as both a psychological thriller and a ‘darkly
comical love story’ by multi-talented writer, director and actor Scot
Williams.
The play centres around Norm, a writer struggling to finish
his novel though insisting he does not believe in writer’s block. His housemate, Guy (Rene Zagger) is a
constant source of distraction and irritation who questions Norm’s every action
and opinion. Their third housemate, Hope
(Samantha Womack) floats in and out of their conversations, playfully teasing
that she has a secret. Writer Scot
Williams makes up the cast, playing Victor, a mysterious figure brought back to
the house by Hope who seems to know more about the other housemates than they realise.
