Theatre: Buried Child

Theatre: Buried Child : by Sam Shepard ENGLAND LONDON  •  Lyttelton Theatre  •  Ongoing   Cast: Shelley : Lauren Ambrose Tilden : Brendan Coyle Halie : Elizabeth Franz Bradley : Sean Murray Father Dewis : John Rogan Vince : Sam Troughton Dodge : M. Emmet Walsh Director: Matthew Warchus Designer: Rob Howell Lighting Designer: Natasha Katz Music: Gary Yershon Sound Designer: Paul Groothuis It’s a curious homecoming for Vince, the son nobody seems to remember; particularly as his girlfriend can’t stop laughing at his apple-pie dream of a childhood house – until she steps inside that is, and meets the half-crazed relatives. Violence is never far from the surface in this claustrophobic domestic world, and the unexpected reunion triggers catastrophe.
