Acclaimed Palestinian theatre company ShiberHur and the Young Vic arrive at the Bush Theatre with their emotive and tragic take on the story of Abraham and Issac. ShiberHur under the direction of Amir Nizar Zuabi - had great success with their previous productions of I Am Yusef and In the Penal Colony and are known for their poignant and sometimes unsettling performances. The Beloved picks up the tale as Abraham arrives home from a journey up the mountain with his son, where his wife notices a disturbing shift in the boy's mental state. This historic story has greatly influenced many aspects of art, literature and philosophy but is now reinterpreted at its most humane level as part of London's World Stages festival.
About Bush Theatre
London's essential theatre for new writing has been the first step into the big time for dozens of Britain's best playwrights. Challenging, disturbing and original works are often accepted by the Bush Theatre, and find their way to the West End. Moving from the room above O'Neill's pub in Shepherds Bush Green to the former Shepherd's Bush Library building on Uxbridge Road in 2011, the theatre acquired larger premises as well as a laid back bar/library and cafe (open Monday to Saturday, 8am to 11pm), worth a visit even if you're not here to watch a play.
