  • Details
  • Additional information

A chilling and powerful modern Medea about motherhood and class, taking an unapologetic look at the single young mum, the one already judged before she’s even opened her mouth.

This is Sam. Young, impulsive, single mum. Londoner born and bred and never ever left. Sam makes her mistakes, but who can blame her?

Tom rents the flat above, the one Sam cleans. If they can come to ‘an arrangement’ he won’t call the Social on her. You might think Tom is a monster. You might think Sam’s kids would be better off without her. Someone needs to make a decision.

Winner of the Soho Theatre Young Writer’s Award, Phoebe Eclair-Powell’s play Fury premiered at Soho Theatre, London, in July 2016.

‘A portrait of damaged youth performed with rare maturity, desire and deprivation all wrapped up in one… will leave you trembling… a vivid, vital 70 minutes. Impressive’
— The Times

‘A play that offers a new perspective on an old story… fuelled by genuine anger and necessary compassion’
— Guardian

‘Profoundly affecting… an absolute triumph’
— The Upcoming

‘Eclair-Powell shows herself to be a considerable talent… a stylish, slickly spun modern-day Medea’
— Evening Standard

‘An excellent psychological drama filled with subtleties and complex damaged characters that command and deserve the audience’s full attention’
— The Reviews Hub

‘Eclair-Powell’s play sears with ferocity’
— WhatsOnStage
