Outcasts of Eden

Recommended by

  • Michael Yawney: Outcasts of Eden

    A historical drama that feels like it is about now. Dramatizing a story not many people know, it gets to the root of a lot of the issues filling headlines today.

    However, it does this by focusing on how all these issues affect one marriage.This is a play that audiences can relate to even though it tells a big story.

    (And it has those strong female roles that we always look for!)
