About

Three strangers are about to face their demons head on. Balanced precariously on the tipping point, they might just be able to save one another-if they can only overcome their urge to self-destruct.
Painful yet playful, poignant but uplifting, Stef Smith's Swallow takes a long, hard look at the extremes of everyday life. This powerful and poetic play premiered at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, as part of the 2015 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

    Reviews

    "'A measured portrait of women in the military... ribald and often very funny'"
    The Stage
    "'A timely new play... explore[s] not only what it is to be female but also the ways in which individual and group identities are constructed, threatened, maintained, how they can be challenged and reconstructed... [an] intelligent, dramatic script... set it in your sights'"
    Guardian
