Ben Weatherill’s new play Jellyfish, a unique story about the boundaries of love, opens at Bush Theatre on 27 June. The cast has today been announced as Ian Bonar, Sarah Gordy, Penny Layden and Nicky Priest.
“I know what people say. How they treat us. But that’s their problem. No one else should give a fuck.”
Kelly likes dirty jokes and finding creatures washed up on the shore. Neil likes Kelly, who makes him dizzy and breathless. But Agnes, Kelly’s mum, struggles to accept their new relationship.
Jellyfish is the story of a first kiss, chips by the beach and coming of age with Down’s Syndrome in a seaside town. It’s a unique romance across uncharted waters which asks: does everyone really have the right to love as they choose?
Jellyfish is at The Bush Theatre 27th June – 21st July 2018.
