Overview

Elinor Cook’s Out of Love explores the complexities of female friendship, the pressures of growing up, and the intensity of the ties that bind. Grace and Lorna are used to doing everything together – sharing mixtapes, insecurities, and ambitions. Nothing can tear them apart, until one day, they find themselves in starkly different situations. Spanning a thirty year period, Out of Love deep dives into the entwined lives of these two women, as changing circumstances bend, break, and test what it means to be a ‘best friend’.

Elinor Cook has recently written for Killing Eve (Season 3) and on forthcoming Apple limited series, The Essex Serpent.

This play is showing as a double bill with Holes. Find out more about the BOVTS Summer Festival at the Wardrobe Theatre here.

It was always stressed that the contacts you make during your training are incredibly important, and your classmates are likely to end up being on set alongside you in the future. After working with a director of photography on one of the School’s short films, I was invited to work on a project with him outside of Bristol - proving that the professionals we meet via the School, may one day give us a call to action!
