Warwick Words presents The Kindness of Strangers

Kindness of StrangersSaturday 20th March 2010
Friends Meeting House
3pm SOLD OUT & 7.30pm

Following an overwhelmingly successful sell out show at our 2009 Festival, Warwick Words is delighted to announce this Xtra special event giving audiences another chance to witness Robert Lister’s superbly moving performance as David.

Should you trust in the kindness of strangers?

When David’s wife dies unexpectedly he is left clinging to the little routines that help him to make sense of his loss.  A chance encounter with a stranger leads to a new friendship. But, how far can David trust his new friend and what will he do
to avoid facing his own loneliness?

This funny and touching new play by Vanessa Oakes deals with the vulnerability of ageing and grief and explores the distance between intimacy and friendship.

Excellent piece of new writing.
Catherine Edwards
