A SAMUEL FRENCH, LTD. TITLE
Short Play, Drama / 1w, 1m
Phil Porter
This is the tale of Jonah, Sophie, and a fox called Scruffilitis. It's a love story. A dysfunctional, voyeuristic and darkly funny love story, but a love story all the same. This new play by the Bruntwood Playwriting Prize winner Phil Porter, is an exciting collaboration between Soho Theatre ‐ London's most vibrant venue for new writing, comedy and cabaret ‐ and internationally acclaimed Fringe First winners nabokov.
