"Come closer. Some things should only be whispered..."
Two teenagers sit in a desolate playground as the city tears itself apart. An old tramp waits in an empty church, while the gangs stalk the streets for their next fix. Into this wasteland of crumbling tower blocks, a shadowy figure appears, promising happiness. But at what price?
A political play of personal journeys, Whispering Happiness is a lyrical and provocative urban fairytale that explores the choices we face when society is in freefall.
"Emson's script is a heady stew of big ideas... Hannah Tyrrell-Pinder's production endows proceedings with Pinteresque menace."
Time Out (Emson's Rural)
