Tribes [play]

Play written by Nina Reine, concerning one deaf man's viewpoint of his unconventional and surreal family. Suddenly Billy meets Sylvia - but does she want to listen to him?

"Nina Raine's second play is a fascinating dissection of belonging, family and the limitations of communication. She won the Evening Standard Award and Critics Circle Award for Most Promising Playwright for her debut play Rabbit in 2006 and is also a director, recently directing Alia Bano's Shades at the Royal Court. Roger Michell's theatre directing credits include My Night with Reg (Royal Court), Rope, Female of the Species and Blue/Orange; his film credits include Venus, Enduring Love and Notting Hill".
