IRON by Rona Munroe


  • Staveley Roundhouse Main Street Staveley, Kendal, Cumbria, LA8 9LU United Kingdom (map)

So many questions.

So many withheld truths.

So many revelations.

 When the truth finally emerges, it may not be the truth at all. How do you forgive the unforgivable? After fifteen years apart, a mother and daughter come face to face. One is searching for answers to a past she can barely remember. The other holds memories she may not be ready to share.What begins as a long-awaited meeting becomes a journey through fractured memories, buried secrets and competing versions of the truth.

 As the layers are peeled back and long-hidden secrets emerge, the past must finally be confronted. But some truths are harder to accept than others.

 IRON by Rona Munro

 A gripping and deeply moving drama about family, memory, guilt, redemption and the stories we tell ourselves to survive.

 An Amateur Production performed by Staveley Roundhouse Players

“An exceptionally gripping and deeply moving play... psychological drama at its best - tense, harrowing, yet also powered by an unsentimental fund of compassion”

Daily Telegraph

Rona Munro's play Iron was first performed at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, in July 2002, transfering to the Royal Court Theatre, London, in January 2003. It went on to win the 2003 John Whiting Award.
