The Greek
Manchester comedian and playwright, Lewis Charlesworth, brings his second feature play to the GMFringe. A comic tale of a divided family, in troubling times... Northern England, 2015. The country builds to a referendum and Mary is poor, old, alone and angry. With only a clingy neighbour to talk to, she awaits the arrival of a long-lost relative. But revealing him could cause quite a stir. The Greek is a tender comedy-drama about British identity, and the humanity on both sides of a divided country. The script was long-listed for the Lancaster Playwriting Prize. From the writer of last year’s GMFringe nominated 'Cheaters: A play About Infidelity'. 'On this evidence, Lewis Charlesworth's transition from comedian to playwright has been a success' - Manchester Theatre Awards (on Cheaters). 'The acting on show tonight was first class, especially from Charlesworth' - North West End (on Cheaters).
