Two lovers. A desert Island. Sea serpents. UFOs. Tsunamis. Unicorns. Atomic bombs. What is this thing...called love?

Philip Ridley’s seminal Tender Napalm was hailed an instant classic when it premiered in London in 2011. Explosive, poetic and brutal, the play weaves a compelling tapestry to re-examine and re-define the language of love…and how that love struggles to survive in the face of catastrophe. It is also a bravura display of the theatrical world of barbaric beauty and soaring imagination that Ridley has made all his own.

The creative team for Tender Napalm includes Brendan Gonzales Boston (set design), Avery Reed (costume design), Stacey Derosier (lighting design), Brian Hickey (sound design), and Freya Grant (general manager). Produced by Steady Hand Studios in association with Rory McGregor.
