Ugly Lies the Bone (2023x1)

Fecha de emisión: Ene 12, 2023

"Beauty is but skin deep, ugly lies the bone; beauty dies and fades away, but ugly holds its own." After three tours in Afghanistan, Jess finally returns to Florida. In a small town on the Space Coast, as the final shuttle is about to launch, Jess must confront her scars – and a home that may have changed even more than her. Experimenting with a pioneering virtual reality therapy, she builds a breath-taking new world where she can escape her pain. There, she begins to restore her relationships, her life and, slowly, herself. Award-winning American playwright Lindsey Ferrentino makes her UK debut with this honest and funny new drama, directed by Indhu Rubasingham. Filmed live at the National Theatre's Lyttelton Theatre in 2017.
