“I don’t know what’s happened... But something has. He’s changed.”
17-year-old Nicolas is going through a difficult phase since his parents’ divorce. He’s started lying and become listless, skipping school and locking himself away.
Feeling unable to live with his mother anymore, he moves in with his father and his new family. Maybe that will help? A new school, a fresh start.
But what if it doesn’t? What then?
This play unflinchingly explores how those suffering often struggle to understand their own inner demons.
A powerful examination of adolescence and the disruptive dynamics of family life.
Florian Zeller’s The Son completes a trilogy with The Mother and The Father (produced at the Altrincham Garrick in 2024), all of which are translated by Christopher Hampton. The Son premiered at the Kiln Theatre, London, in February 2019, and transferred to the Duke of York’s Theatre in August. A film version, directed by Zeller himself, and starring Hugh Jackman, Vanessa Kirkby and Anthony Hopkins, was produced in 2022.
