The Human Ear (NHB Modern Plays)

A man turns up at Lucy’s door claiming to be the brother she hasn’t seen in ten years. But why has he come? Is it really him? And what happens when there’s another knock at the door?
An intriguing tale of loss, renewal and knowing who to trust, Alexandra Wood's The Human Ear was first produced by Paines Plough in their pop-up theatre, Roundabout, at the 2015 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, before touring.

    LUCY. Neither do I.
    See? We already have a lot in common.
    Pause.
    Stay tonight at least.
    You don’t have to move in, but I don’t want to be alone in the house, maybe that old woman was right, maybe I should get a dog, I hate being alone and it’s not the noises I hate, it’s not the creaking Frank, it’s the quiet, it’s the, like I’m buried underground, no sound, nothing, it’s suffocating, I can’t breathe and I just want my mum, I just want her

    initiate something.
    MAN. might wish I was.
