Preparations are underway for Tabitha Mortiboy’s The Amber Trap, the fifth female-led play from Damsel Productions, which premieres this month at London’s Theatre503, where it runs from 24 April to 18 May 2019. Sneak a peek inside rehearsals with our photo gallery – and then get booking!
“Some bones are like ice. They’re weaker than you’d think.” Katie and her girlfriend Hope work at their local corner shop, where the days pass in quiet, comfortable rhythms. For Katie, the little shop is a sanctuary. A place where she can hold onto Hope without anybody watching. But when new employee Michael arrives, the sands start to shift and the air begins to thicken.
In this chilling portrait of craving and control, Olivia Rose Smith is Katie, Fanta Barrie is Hope, Misha Butler is Michael and Jenny Bolt is Jo. The premiere production is directed by Hannah Hauer-King and designed by Jasmine Swan, with lighting by Lucy Adams and sound by Annie May Fletcher. It’s produced by Kitty Wordsworth for Damsel Productions.
