Hailed as "one of the most powerful dramas of the century" by The New York Times, Blackbird is "a brilliant and tantalizing study in sexual obsession that leaves one both shaken and stirred" (The Guardian).
Blackbird tells the story of Una and Ray. Fifteen years earlier they had a relationship and haven’t set eyes on each other since. Now she’s found him again. Following acclaimed productions in London and off-Broadway, the Olivier Award-winning play was lauded on Broadway with critical acclaim and Tony nominations for its two stars.
