Top of PageBefore It Rains
Before It Rains is set on a proud, forgotten Cardiff estate. Gloria is a single mum who enjoys sitting in her deckchair drinking her troubles away on her allotment, while her gentle son, Michael, digs the soil and makes sure everything is in order. From a relocated, troubled home, Carl wild, unpredictable and near feral watches both the mother and son with interest, bouncing his ball. It's a play about what a mother would do to protect her son and how complicated friendship can be when you haven't been taught to love. Funny, brave and beautifully told, Katherine Chandler's tale of parenthood, protection and provocation looks at how we all develop our own ways of coping with the world, our craving for companionship and the consequences of having either threatened.
