A Rehearsed Reading

An unlikely relationship develops one summer between Misty, a 15-year-old girl, and The Honey Man, an ‘ancient’ Afro-Caribbean man who has taken up residence in a derelict cottage at the edge of her picture-postcard English village.

A tale of growing up and growing old, individual responsibility and shared history, dying bees, healing herbs and (possibly) a little magic.

The Honey Man, developed by New Perspectives in partnership with Eastern Angles Theatre Company and Theatre Writing Partnership as part of The Writer’s Lab, premiered in co-production with DerbyLIVE at the Guildhall Theatre in Derby from 16 March 2012 prior to a national tour.

Part of neat11 (Nottingham European Arts and Theatre Festival 2011)
