Shed: Exploded View (NHB Modern Plays)

The smallest tremble. A smashed glass. The ripping apart of space and time. Three couples. Thirty years. Mothers and daughters. Lovers, partners, husbands and wives. Babies, teenagers, birthdays, holidays, honeymoons, fireworks, near-misses, rain. This is a play about all of it. A devastating and delicately woven piece about violence, love and loss, Phoebe Eclair-Powell's Shed: Exploded View won the 2019 Bruntwood Prize for Playwriting. Partly inspired by Cornelia Parker's stunning artwork Cold Dark Matter: An Exploded View, it was first performed at the Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester, in 2024, directed by Atri Banerjee. 'A gritty and intensely moving account of domestic violence… it is honest, and raw, and left me in bits' - Telegraph 'A formally ambitious exploration of love and violence… Shed: Exploded View shatters and reassembles time, leaving us to pick through the wreckage… Eclair-Powell holds individual moments up to the light, inviting us to see the darkness thrown by seemingly trivial incidents… quietly devastating' - The Stage 'Love, loss and horrific male violence… a play that is as subtle as it is unsettling' - Guardian
