We will fix it.

We will mend it...

'Stitching' is one of the most controversial and discussed plays of recent years.

In the light of a pregnancy, a faithless couple pick apart their relationship, stitch by painful stitch. Can it be mended?

Anthony Neilson's dark and intimate new play is a love story set at the extremes of brutality, banality and tenderness.

'Stitching' opened at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, on 2 August 2002 and transferred to the Bush Theatre, London on 12 September 2002.

'Explodes with power, discipline, integrity and sheer cruel psychological accuracy...Neilson's writing has a terrible beauty' - Sunday Times.

'Startlingly rich and challenging, Neilson depicts with aching precision a relationship in which love is undermined by distrust' - Time Out.

'A characteristically brave and brutal offering' - Independent.

'A deeply mesmerising, if shocking, experience as a couple smashes through taboo after taboo in a harrowing sexual tug of war' - Evening Standard.

Chapter Arts Centre ... Wed 4th July - Saturday 7th July
