HUNT is a specially commissioned play for young people exploring one person's experience of violent war and conflict.
Leila wants to be famous, Tony spends all his time playing computer games and Nicolas gets picked on. Three so called friends reluctantly embark on a journey. The further they travel the less they like each other and the more they argue. Each wants to go their own way as the route throws up unexpected challenges.
As circumstances change from playful to dangerous all choice is taken away from the trio. They are forced to face individual fears and ignorance when they meet Monika, a girl hiding in the shadows, with a past far different from theirs. This encounter tests the group and challenges their friendship.
With Monika's need to survive, Leila, Tony and Nicolas find they must work together and take risks to make a way forward that will re-define their view of themselves and others.
HUNT is a site-specific, promenade style performance that responds to the unique and historic Wilton's Music Hall, the world's oldest and last surviving music hall. This characterful and beautiful venue will provide a sense of the unexpected evoking an energetic and emotive response from audiences as they join this journey.
Suitable for audiences aged 10 years and over
Duration: Approximately 60 minutes
