Deliciously disturbing. Award-winning, sold out LAMDA graduate company Namesake Theatre returns to the Edinburgh Fringe with their new play Persona, a gripping, darkly comic and cathartically unsettling reunion. Four boarding-school alumni gather in a secluded country house to divide a dead friend’s trust, but the night quickly begins to unravel. Insults are flung, compliments concealed and civility begins to fracture under the weight of social grace pushed to its breaking point. By turns hilarious and hellish, Persona peels back the curtain on the masks we wear to survive, and asks what, if anything, lies beneath.
