"A powerful piece of theatre." —The British Theatre Guide. "... a fully-charged thriller that falls somewhere between classic Alfred Hitchcock and a twisted episode of Law & Order." —The Mississauga News. "TALK ABOUT THE PASSION is meant to be disturbing, to raise questions and to challenge our fascination with morbid forms of entertainment." —City Pulse. "This is possibly the most gripping play I've ever seen ..." —Karen Slater, BBC. "Short, sharp and with several chilling twists at the end ... thought-provoking theatre at its best." —Perth Sunday Times.

A young child is horrifically murdered; the autobiography of the serial killer is a hit publication. Jason Carroway is forced to endure the guilt at failing to protect his son and the subsequent media attention that accompanies the controversial release of the killer’s autobiography. The play is a moving and powerful exploration of loss, society’s collusion in the glamorization of evil, and the desire for justice.

Timely and controversial, TALK ABOUT THE PASSION is a gripping drama from acclaimed British playwright Graham Farrow that bravely confronts society’s morbid fascination with the most terrible of crimes and our habit of forgiving the criminal and criminalizing the victim. An age-old story of loss, guilt, morality and revenge.

Graham Farrow's award-winning TALK ABOUT THE PASSION has been produced globally and is a constant source of interest from Hollywood. We are honored to have Mr. Farrow travel from England to join us for the Midwestern premiere. Click here to listen to an interview with Graham Farrow on BBC Radio.
