Poison
by Lot Vekemans

Translated by Rina Vergamo

Presented by True Life Productions CIC, a professional theatre company returning to The Cockpit after their success with "Continuity(7)" in 2025.

A marriage destroyed by grief. A former husband and wife are reunited to protect the memory of their lost child. Lot Vekemans’ play is raw and emotionally intense and asks a simple question: is it possible to move on?

Martin Maynard and Lynne Livingstone star in this compelling story, directed by Rosina Piovani. True Life Productions brings Poison to the stage this Spring hoping to create space for collective reflection, honesty, opening and healing.

“Poison is an intense look at divorce, death and how we grieve” The Guardian

“A moving and insightful intimate drama” TheatreGuide London (referring to the London premiere in 2017)
