Vera Vera Vera

‘Bobby’s dead and you’re still breathing. That’s a fucking walking talking tragedy that is.’

The boy who comes back from a war far away in a wooden box is glorified and called a hero.

As the funeral plans are made in a small Kent town, his siblings squabble over who he was. Maybe the fanfare isn’t needed for this heroic martyr. Vera Vera Vera is a blackly comic play about what we are willing to fight for, looking at violence, neglect and apathy.
