My Little Theatre Company presents Precious Things
A new play written by Lucy Corbett

An artist who loved Hitler.
A woman who wants to remember him.
Her brother who wants to forget.
A man who likes power.

Ingrid is organising an exhibition of the work of her great-uncle, a talented artist who was also a supporter of the Nazi Party. She is helped by Charles, a pompous but slightly sinister man with great ambitions. They invite her brother Theo and his wife Anna to visit them, with hopes of Theo’s approval and involvement. Despite being cautiously pleased to see his sister again for the first time in years, Theo is unenthusiastic about the project and unwilling to participate. As the siblings bicker and Anna tries to keep things pleasant and happy, Charles becomes increasingly frustrated with their presence.

Precious Things is a family drama, exploring the ways in which history and heritage stray into the present. The issues of art, ethics and how they relate to one another are explored but not finalised, with the audience left to ponder on their own conclusions. The play mixes drama with a dark and subtle style of comedy which has become a characteristic of the company.

“I was extremely impressed.”
Shropshire Star
