Let’s Talk About Philip

  • The Etcetera Theatre 265 Camden High Street London, England, NW1 7BU United Kingdom (map)

When 30 years of family silence is broken Helen begins a detective-like quest to discover the hidden story behind her brother’s suicide.

The journey takes her back to her childhood, exotic Asian locations, a coroner’s court and the place where her brother died. As surprising details are uncovered, Helen grapples with loyalty, long-held beliefs and how much we ever really know about those we love.

A fast-paced, candid, darkly comic and gripping play, written and performed by Helen Wood and Gregor Hunt.

Directed by 2022 Olivier Award nominee Derek Bond (Dragons & Mythical Beasts; Jess & Joe Forever).

'This is a beautifully constructed, utterly engaging play, powered in equal amounts by Wood’s insightful candour and by Hunt’s flawless characterisation. I’ll be talking about it for a long time to come.’ The Wee Review *****

'A very peaceful and life affirming way to spend an hour.’ Three Weeks ****

'Strikes a perfect balance between grief and joy, and between love and anger.’ London Theatre 1 ****
