THE LAKE – A REHEARSED READING

Fri 29 May

‘The Lake’ is rooted in the point of a healing process from poor mental health, where fear of relapse is far more terrifying than living through the original events.

Thea, a fifty-year-old, returns to Nate in the hope of them finally marrying one another. She finds him as a fragile man, living by a lake, confused on her arrival by what he hopes to have been a vision, a sign in the water that might finally bring them together. What follows is a tale of guilt, the burden of hindsight and then redemption.

Colchester born Richard Chilver is Playwright in Residence of Lakeside Theatre and currently writing an animated film for Scopus Films.
