The Love of the Nightingale

Please note: Info provided by the Event Organiser

Set in a land ravaged by war, two sisters are torn apart. They strive to find power in a society dominated by men. In this patriarchal world asking questions is dangerous and turning a blind eye is routine. Can the truth be heard when free speech is lost and victims are shamed?

In this fierce and modern interpretation, Bristol Old Vic Young Company present Timberlake Wertenbaker's The Love of the Nightingale, a play to challenge perceptions of consent, gender and sexuality.

Performed in a nightclub and with a cocktail of original rave music, dance and a twist of humour, Bristol Old Vic Young Company tackle this ancient myth in their own unique, anarchic way.

Suitable for ages 14+. Contains scenes of a violent and sexual nature and strong language that some audience members may find distressing.
