“To love. To be loved. Difficult things”.
In the haze of a late summer in a London garden, the apples have all fallen to the ground. It is the day of Daddy’s funeral, and two orphans find themselves suddenly alone, with nobody to cling to but each other.
Embracing the painful uncertainties that often characterise our closest relationships, A Breakfast of Eels paints a delicate and heartbreaking portrait of two young men desperately trying to navigate themselves, one another, and the world, in a time of grief.
From the duo company that brought you Being Friends, we are delighted to present the next instalment in our Robert Holman series: A Breakfast of Eels. Nominated for Two Off West-End awards, Holman’s beautiful two-hander was first performed in 2015 at the Coronet Theatre, in London, to critical acclaim.
