THE LYONS

19 September - 16 November 2013

We’re excited to announce the European premiere of the American hit comedy THE LYONS by acclaimed playwright Nicky Silver .

The Lyons have gathered around the hospital bed of their dying father Ben. But surface compassion soon gives way to bickering, sniping and betraying each other’s secrets. This exploration of a fractured family is at once savagely funny and heart-breaking.

“Oh, they’re just awful people, those Lyons. They’re whiny, denigrating, vicious, self-centered, recriminatory... And they’re a family that you will really, really want to spend time with."
