Synopsis
On the surface, Steven has everything.
A beautiful wife, a successful business, a brand new home.
But beneath this glittering veneer lies a monstrous secret ...
"You believe him cos he wraps all the painful stuff in feathers and flowers.
Makes it all safe and cosy.
You can't feel the broken glass inside."
Leaves of Glass is a collaboration between the influential and maverick writer Philip Ridley and Soho's new ground-breaking artistic director, Lisa Goldman.
The play premiered at Soho Theatre on 3 May 2007.
