In Our Broken Hours is an intimate one act play about a father living with alcoholism and the adult daughter who finds herself slipping into the role of his carer. Through frantic phone calls, raw monologues and a painful meeting, the play explores a relationship shaped by love, frustration and addiction.
Mack, once charismatic, now drifts between warmth and withdrawal, unable to face the depth of his dependency. When his daughter Emma arrives unexpectedly, both are forced to confront the truths they’ve avoided.
What emerges is a portrait of two people who care deeply about each other but can no longer meet in the middle. A story of responsibility, exhaustion and the quiet heartbreak of watching someone you love slowly disappear.
Starring Simon Ashton, an actor, director and producer whose work spans stage and screen, and Giulia Rose, winner of Best Supporting Actress at the New York International Film Awards and the Oniros Film Awards.
