“I was thinking about Jimi. How his life’s over, and how my life, our lives, are still…”
Four men gather to attend the funeral of a close friend. As tensions rise and truths spill out they are left wondering if they will ever be the same again. Under the brash surface, Hymns is a touching story of friendship under fire, where deep-rooted connection fights for survival against the reality of grief and guilt.
Using lightning fast dialogue and stylised movement, it is a bruising exploration of how toxic masculinity affects our ability to care about those closest to us.
This play is showing as a double bill with Some People Talk About Violence. Find out more about the BOVTS Summer Festival at the Wardrobe Theatre here.
