Relics in London

Four estranged siblings reunite at their recently deceased mother's house: bulldozer Liz, people-pleaser Rob, impatient Michelle, and prodigal son Jonny. But as they set about dividing up their mother's possessions, they stumble in on an explosive family secret that threatens to undo everything they know about themselves and each other. In the wake of tragedy and uncertainty, will these four very different siblings be able to come together and move forward as a family?

Written by Ben Ockrent and directed by award-winning Michael Longhurst (Next to Normal, The Human Body, The Band's Visit), Relics will have its world premiere at the Lyric Hammersmith. It's a powerful, heartbreaking, and darkly comic drama about confronting the legacies we inherit, the pains of growing up, and the complicated and fractured bonds of family. A brand new and original story conceived by an award-winning and rising star playwright, the broken characters and charged storytelling of Relics will stay with you long after you've left the theatre.

Family, legacy, and the heartbreaking reality of fractured sibling relationships come together in this emotionally stirring and powerful play, coming soon to the Lyric Hammersmith.

Very funny and sad at the same tome

This performance was a delight. Excellent cast, nicely put together. Script jumped from laugh out loud funny to poignant and sad. It also had an excellent ethical dilemma at its heart.

Exciting family drama

This play so easy to see and so many laughs. Woke up this morning laughing!! Great acting and sound(voices) amazing. Story line excellent and felt a bit like my own family!! Except no Jewish painting. Theatre had air conditioning and given how warm it is atm it was FABULOUS. Also the seating is wonderfully placed ie seats placed behind are between so viewing is very good, ie if you were behind a tall person it’s very frustrating but with the tiered seats it’s excellent! Totally recommend this play. If I had time I would go again. Thanks to all who made this a great night of theatre. Bar area and space outside gives you lots of open space, a Great theatre

Family life, exposed.

The play truly exposed the way family feelings can be explored following a loss of a parent. The way the four siblings go about sharing out the family possessions exposes long buried family secrets explode with devastating consequences. Excellent acting from all four actors. Lighting effects towards the end, really add to the drama.

Splendid moral comedy.

If you’ve ever been through the awful process of dismantling someone’s estate this show will ring true. Excellent cast who bring off some unexpected turns in the story with aplomb Note to writer. Legal query - I think IHT on a principal residence inherited by children gets an additional £175k = £500k threshold.

Definitely worth the journey.

Spur of the moment booking after hearing it promoted on the radio last week. Very glad I did. Exceptional. Covered a variety of subjects with emotion and humour. The scenes that made me laugh most were the tree scene, the choreography to Bonnie Tyler’s bright eyes, bought back memories of my own childhood dance routines. And the slow motion scene was nothing short of Breath taking acting.
