The Hunger
★★★★★ – Broadway Baby “The Hunger is absolutely a must-see”
Megan and Deborah live alone on their farm in the Yorkshire Dales. What was once their
home has now become their only refuge from an increasingly dangerous outside world. They
have their farm, their food and each other. But when their fragile harmony is sent into a dark,
downward spiral, the cost of survival is chillingly laid bare.
Kitchen-sink drama meets post-apocalyptic horror, the sell-out original production about
morality and motherhood at the end of the world went on to tour Northern England. Fresh
from a critically acclaimed full run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Black Bright Theatre
Company is excited to bring The Hunger to Greenwich Theatre for our London debut.
Recipient of an Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2023 Off Fest Nomination.
