Reckless

A piece of new writing by Rebecca Rogers, presented by Heady Conduct Theatre Company at The Rose Playhouse, Southwark.
“Shoulders rounded against the storm, he strides along the wind ripped shore, clothes snapping around him like the sails of a storm born ship. He searches, he shouts, but the sea has caught him out once again.”
An Old Man who lost his love to the sea, brings up his son to fear it, on an island of folk who have been blinded by the past. Perception and reality blur and memories of lost love shape them all. When the unexpected washes up on their shore, time worn secrets begin to emerge.
RECKLESS is an epic story of outrageous love and forbidden joy, exploring the timeless matters of the heart. Inspired by the great works of classical drama and using a mixture of theatrical styles, RECKLESS explores fear, its powerful ability to shape us and the indescribable release when reckless love comes our way.
Heady Conduct is excited to be performing RECKLESS at The Rose Playhouse. Situated in the heart of Southwark, this historic theatre was hosting new, innovative work 400 years ago. We are proud to be continuing in this tradition.
Heady Conduct simply means exhilarating behaviour. We are passionate about projects that move the soul and make us review our outlook. This new company of experienced, and newly graduated RCSSD actors are working together for the first time to create thrilling theatre.
