Eigengrau

Eigengrau

by Penelope Skinner

Directed by Tate Jackson and Rex Elliott

 Putney Arts Theatre, London, SW15 6AW

 Fri 3rd January 2025 - Sat 4th January 2025

Tate Jackson and Rex Elliott return to direct Penelope Skinner's hugely enjoyable tragicomedy, after a successful sold-out run at the Cygnet Theatre, Exeter (Dec 2023). 

Rose believes in true love and leprechauns. Her flatmate Cassie is engaged in a fervent struggle against patriarchal oppression. Across London, Mark lives his life like a marketing campaign, and his flatmate Tim Muffin is engaged in a fervent struggle to get out of bed in the morning. When circumstances throw them together, all four have their beliefs tested to devastating effect in this biting black comedy about trying to connect in a city where Gumtree can sometimes feel like your closest friend.

The audiences watched “some fine individual performances from up-and-coming actors” (PRSD), in a “production [that] was extremely well-paced and absorbing throughout” (RAZZ Magazine). 

 “I do not believe ‘Eigengrau’ could be performed better’, with one of the best openings to a play I’ve ever seen’ (Her Campus).

This amateur production of “Eigengrau” is presented by arrangement with Concord
Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk.
