Bracken Moor: NHB Modern Plays

After years apart, two families come together to rediscover their lost friendship. Instead, they conjure up the spirit of a burning tragedy. Set against the economic crisis of the 1930s, this boldly theatrical tale of grief and denial by Alexi Kaye Campbell was premiered by Shared Experience at the Tricycle Theatre, London, in 2013.
