Hymn

<i>Sometimes it takes a long time to sound like yourself</i><br/>(Miles Davis)<br/><br/>Two men meet at a funeral. Gil knew the deceased. Benny did not. Before long their families are close. Soon they'll be singing the same tune.<br/><br/>Benny is a loner anchored by his wife and children. Gil longs to fulfill his potential. They develop a deep bond but as cracks appear in their fragile lives they start to realise that true courage comes in different forms.<br/><br/>Featuring music from Gil and Benny's lives <b></b>Lolita Chakrabarti's searching soulful new play asks what it takes to be a good father brother or son.<br/><br/>This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at London's Almeida Theatre in February 2021.
