Description
The Bounds by Stewart Pringle A darkly comedic tale of national divides, folk horror and the end of the world as we know it. In 1553, the year of the Allen Valley Whitsun Game, two men are out in the middle of nowhere, miles from the action, when a stranger joins them with tidings that will change their lives forever. As night falls and time passes, the great chain of being collapses, and they're losing the bloody football. This is a story about the end of the world as we know it, told with dark humour and a sense of unease. First co-produced by Live Theatre, Newcastle upon Tyne, and the Royal Court Theatre, London, The Bounds was directed by Jack McNamara in 2024. A gripping and unsettling play that explores the boundaries between people and the world around them, The Bounds is a worthwhile read for fans of dark comedy and folk horror.
