The Humans’ is a poignant, award-winning drama (Tony Awards, Best Play) that, with humour and compassion explores the tensions and bonds in family life today.

In Brigid’s run-down New York apartment, with bad wi-fi and strange noises upstairs, the Blake family comes together to celebrate Thanksgiving, bringing with them their anxieties, fears, and hidden struggles.

But as they cook and eat, bicker and joke, darkness begins to fall and long buried tensions and secrets start to emerge. Plus, the strange noises upstairs may not be as innocent as they thought!

‘The Humans’ is warm, funny, uplifting and unsettling. Malvern Theatre Company is proud to present the Victorian premiere of this modern masterpiece, dubbed “Kind, rich and beautiful” (Chicago Tribune).
