WHEN DID WE BECOME STRANGERS TO ONE ANOTHER?

From the writer of our 2023 award-winning production of Things I Know To Be True comes a masterfully interconnected drama about the relationships between lovers, strangers, and the infinite ways people are entangled.

Pete is married to Jane. Leon is married to Sonja. One night, Pete meets Sonja in a bar, and they go back to a cheap hotel. By chance, on the same night, Leon and Jane do the same.

One couple goes through with it. The other doesn’t.

A lonely man pines for the love of his life who moved on decades ago.

A woman disappears, leaving just a stiletto and a neighbour as the prime suspect. Her husband doesn’t answer the phone.

Nine lives weave together in Bovell’s electrifying play about love, desire, suspicion, and betrayal.

Speaking in Tongues was adapted for the screen as the multi-award-winning film Lantana in 2001.
