Adelle LeonceAlex WaldmannBen KiddGate TheatreNewsNina Segal

Adelle Leonce and Alex Waldmann. Casting has been announced for the Gate Theatre's world premiere production of In The Night Time (Before the Sun Rises) by Nina Segal.

The production will feature Alex Waldmann as Man and Adelie Leonce as Woman. The production is directed by Ben Kidd.

A baby cries. A bottle breaks. A window smashes.

Over the course of one night, mum and dad try to still their screaming infant – but as the hours grow longer, the world becomes elastic around them, and the horrors that scar our planet crash into the baby’s room. Should they ever have brought this child into such a wounded world?

This is Nina Segal’s first professionally produced play. The world première of In the Night Time (Before the Sun Rises) takes a hallucinatory look at one couple's experience of having their first baby.

In The Night Time (Before The Sun Roses) runs at the Gate Theatre from 4th - 27th February 2016.

There is promise in this piece. The hallucinatory nature of exhaustion allows the tired pair to swerve through time and space, offering a great basis for metaphysical conversation. Much similar yet not as gripping as Duncan MacMillan’s LUNGS, Segal poses the question: ‘Should they ever have brought this child into such a wounded world?’
