The Production

Apples
by Richard Milward
Adapted & directed by John Retallack

 

The upcoming production of Apples is the first stage adaptation of the remarkable debut novel by Richard Milward.

Enter the world of Adam and Eve.  It is a very different Eden.  It’s a world of beauty, deprivation, colour and fear.  Eve has tasted every kind of apple. Adam hasn’t tasted anything at all. When two such different people meet, is paradise lost or might it be found?

Six fifteen year olds taste the delights and horrors of everything teenage life has to offer in equally humorous and shocking measure.

Shameless, ruthless and intensely poetic, Apples is dazzling, tragicomic love story of adolescence.

“ The drugs, the sex, the boozing… it all smacks beautifully of the real thing.”
