Idyll
Written by Matt Hartley

Alice is falling in love. Harry has been sleeping in a tent in the garden. Tommy Scott has been blocking the road with hay bales again. A map can tell you about the land, but it can’t tell you about the people who live there, so that is what we’re here to do.
Idyll is set in a rural village on a scorching hot day in July. And another hot day means one thing: more visitors. Tempers fray and feelings bubble to the surface in a play that asks who has the right to call a place their own?
Storyhouse Young Company bring this play to life in an ensemble production fusing storytelling, movement, and plenty of characters.
