Beast in the Room
(currently in development)
,A woman is lost.
A child is rebuilding their world as a threat looms.
They find each other and embark on a journey of loss, hope and connection.
An intergenerational theatre show about trauma and finding hope in the aftermath.
A meditation on a mother and son relationship.
Creator/Performer April Albert and her son Jule (now 16) have worked on this show over the past 10 years, weaving together a tale of building worlds and utopias amongst the threats that loom.
Part auto-fictional storytelling, part theatrical devising, part conversation. How do we connect our stories and our children to what is happening around the world as patriarchal and capitalistic systems of power are collapsing and the climate crisis is billowing smoke into our cities? Where do we find hope and healing for the next generation?
Created and Performed by April Albert and Jule Boyle
