A Leeds University Open Theatre production by Katherine Chandler

Now this is the law of the jungle

as old and as true as the sky;

And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper,

but the Wolf that shall break it must die.

Set on a neglected estate, ‘Before it Rains’ is a raw, humorous, dark drama that follows Michael, a 30-year-old man with high functioning Asperger’s, who still lives at home with Gloria, his alcoholic mother. Their close relationship is shaken-up by Carl, a new-comer to the area with a problematic history of his own. Carl attempts to take Michael under his wing but where do Michael’s loyalties lie?

Suitable for 16+
