Drama Llamas present “Splendour” by Abi Morgan
Drama Llamas is a group of enthusiastic and experienced amateur theatre practitioners who share a love of staging exciting new plays by outstanding playwrights. Our previous productions include Escaped Alone by Caryl Churchill in 2021, The Children by Lucy Kirkwood in 2022 and Love and Information by Caryl Churchill in 2024.
In a splendid palace, in an unnamed country, four women await the long-overdue arrival of the dictator. The dictator’s wife, her best friend, a foreign journalist and an interpreter pass the time watching the light fade, drinking Chilli Vodka, discussing painting and tearing each other apart.
Splendour recounts its story in fragmented snapshots which finally resolve into a shocking truth. The play is full of threat and humour and will be topical as long as oppressive regimes thrive.
Splendour was written by award-winning Welsh playwright and screenwriter, Abi Morgan (Brick Lane, The Hour, The Split, The Iron Lady and Suffragette).
Drama Llamas are grateful to Stony Stratford Town Council for their generous funding of this project.
NOTE: Splendour contains swearing, suicide references and descriptions of war atrocities. It would probably be best enjoyed by 14+
