Who Put Bella in the Wych Elm
Who Put Bella in the Wych Elm by Morgan Noll | 26th January 2018 | Bedlam Theatre, Edinburgh
Those of you who went to STAG Nights May remember the triumph of Morgan Noll’s ‘Who Put Bella in Wych Elm’- which is now being put on as part of Edinburgh University’s Bedlam Theatre Society’s Bedfest! The festival has days of exciting workshops and performances, and have kindly let us put on a show.
WHO PUT BELLA IN THE WYCH ELM is a 40 minute one
person show exploring the memory of Russell, a father
desperately trying to piece together the warning signs
surrounding his son, Dean. As Deans behavior begins to worsen,
Russell's neglect to interfere with his increasingly alienated son,
begin to have horrific, inhuman, consequences for the pair...and
the community at large. how far can a parents love be tested?
And how can one forgive their own own child if the world no
longer sees them as human?
But as Russell soon learns, sometimes you can't.
You just can't.
