Family Play

Family Play takes the idea of how a family should be structured and turns it on its head. Told through the eyes of a worldly-wise 8 year old, Family Play reveals the comedy and tragedy associated with all human relationships.

Never shy to deconstruct a dramatic world, Matt Fox deals with the real and surreal in equal measure to reveal the subjectivity of truth behind all family units.

Review of Fox's previous play 'To Sleep'.

Funny dialogue, pacey writing and an unlikely comic partnership really draw the audience into the story, whilst providing a dynamic that adds poignancy to the sadder and more serious aspects of the script...[Fox] is skilled at composing witty dialogue and has the ability to examine difficult social issues with humour and compassion.
