What happens when two ordinary people discover they hate what they have become? In Parlour Song, playwright Jez Butterworth tackles domestic paranoia as he introduces Dale, a demolitions expert who suspects that his wife is stealing from him. The play rises to a heightened comic world where all is not what it seems and the looming sense of a wolf at the door becomes ever more intense.
Parlour Song marks the third collaboration between the British Butterworth and the Atlantic Theater Company, which previously mounted director Neil Pepe's productions of Mojo and The Night Heron.
