Four strangers meet, fall in love and tear each other apart in Closer, Patrick Marber’s searingly honest take on modern relationships.
Bristling with quickfire dialogue and incisive wit, and punctuated with moments of hilarity, Closer gets under its audience’s skin and shines a hard light on subjects like love, sex and truth.
Hailed as a modern masterpiece, Marber’s play has enjoyed success worldwide and in 2004 was made into a film starring Natalie Portman and Clive Owen.
Closer is a play for adults about adult relationships. It has been described as “not for the emotionally squeamish” and the language used is brutal and explicit, pulling no punches.
Join these four uncomfortably recognizable characters as they struggle to find love, security and purpose – and discover that the truth brings no one closer.
