The Quiet House (Nhb Modern Plays)

'It's passing on your thoughts, your personality, a part of yourself, your DNA. If we don't do that what are we? We're just dust.' Jess and Dylan are in love. They want a family. That's all they have ever wanted. When diagnosed with infertility, this ordinary couple find themselves on an extraordinary journey. They enter the world of IVF treatment where intimacy is replaced by injections. Forced to fight for the family they so desperately want, they put their faith in science and their relationship through the ultimate test. An exploration of infertility and the taboo that surrounds it, The Quiet House is a funny, moving and unswervingly honest love story, inspired by true events. It premiered at Birmingham Rep in May 2016 before playing at Park Theatre, London.
