Shared Experience and Sherman Cymru join forces to portray the extraordinary story of identical twins June and Jennifer Gibbons.
Refusing to speak to adults,the twins communicate in their own private language, their only relationship being their intense and turbulent bond with each other. Polly Teale and Linda Brogan’s powerful new play is an astonishing and moving portrayal of the twins’ secret world and their struggle to find a voice against all odds.
Speechless is directed and cowritten by Shared Experience’s joint Artistic Director, Polly Teale. Celebrated for her potent visual and imaginative style, Polly won the Evening Standard Award for Best Director for her own play After Mrs Rochester, which also won the Time Out Award for Best West End Production.
