Loss & Hope: We Have Sinned

Fifteen-year-old Esther goes to a girls-only Catholic school. When she meets David, from the school across the road, her body begins to feel things it’s never felt before. She doesn’t know what to do with all her guilt. We Have Sinned was first developed during Alchymy Catalyst 2019, an intensive two-week free residency for early-career playwrights and directors to develop new work, and learn from established industry figures. The play is part of Loss and Hope: A Trilogy of Audio Plays, commissioned and co-produced by Atticist, Ellie Keel Productions, and 45North, in association with The North Wall. These three new short plays are inspired by Alchymy Festival, an annual celebration of new work at The North Wall, Oxford. These plays honour the creativity and connections events like Alchymy have inspired and will continue to inspire when they return.
