Description
Eyam by Matt Hartley In 1665, Reverend William Mompesson arrives in Eyam, Derbyshire, to lead the parish. However, the village is plagued by internal divisions and neighbourly feuds, all under the watchful eye of a ruthless landowner. When the plague strikes, the villagers are faced with a difficult decision: stay quarantined or flee and risk spreading the disease. This tense drama explores the importance of community in the face of adversity, as the villagers grapple with their civil responsibility. Premiering at Shakespeare's Globe, London, in September 2018, Eyam is a powerful play that examines the human cost of isolation and the strength of community bonds.
