Description

A Hard Rain by Jon Bradfield and Martin Hooper is a vibrant drama set in New York City in 1969. Against the backdrop of the sweltering days before the Stonewall riots, two men from different worlds collide in a mafia-run bar. Ruby, a former soldier, and his new friend form an unlikely bond that changes their lives forever. The play is packed with sharp gags, colourful characters, and heart-wrenching moments. It premiered at Above the Stag Theatre, London, in 2014 to critical acclaim. With its moving portrayal of friendship and resilience, A Hard Rain is a powerful exploration of what happens when we push things underground. A gripping and humorous drama that explores themes of identity, community, and the power of human connection, A Hard Rain is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in contemporary theatre.
