After the death of her sister is left unresolved, Esther is broken and alone. Searching for closure, she is increasingly drawn to the disturbing world of Keith. As their relationship progresses, the two spin webs of trickery and deceit—but who is the spider, and who is the fly? Can either of them escape their shared past? And will they emerge unscathed? John Webber's “Spiderfly” is a taut, thrilling debut play. It premiered at Theatre503, London, in November 2019.
"'A tantalising tale of tangled relationships... kept me hooked for 80 minutes and shows a distinctly edgy promise'"
Guardian
"'Very much a play about personal trauma, but incorporates much in the way of character-driven humour... well and truly cements the fact that Webber is a writer to watch out for, and one who promises an exciting future'"
Broadway World
"'A psychological thriller without lacking originality... distinctive and involving'"
