A shattering and darkly funny play about responsibility and rehabilitation, considering what can be done to tackle abuse at its root.

Four men convicted of domestic abuse offences meet each week to undergo a perpetrator programme. But as Jen, the new group facilitator, starts to make progress with the men inside the room, life outside begins to buckle.

BINDWEED won the Judges Award at the Bruntwood Prize for Playwriting 2022, and was first performed at the Mercury Theatre, in 2024, in a co-production with HighTide and the New Wolsey Theatre, and in association with the Royal Exchange Theatre.

This play & other Bruntwood Prize-winners are available to buy from our publishing partner Nick Hern Books.
