Overview
And they all told us we were crazy, everyone told us we were crazy. But we knew we were right. And now, I think: what if we were wrong? What if they were right, after all, and we were wrong?
Bright twenty-somethings Molly and Conor have been married for a year. Forced to relocate to Conor's family-home in Belfast, their love and understanding of each other is brought irretrievably into question.
In Guardians, the beautifully crafted follow-up to Lucy Caldwell’s George Devine Award-winning play Leaves, Caldwell explores what happens when our expectations come up against reality, and how easy it is to miss our step.
Guardians is directed by Natalie Abrahami, joint Artistic Director of London's Gate Theatre: A director of exceptional flair. The Guardian
