A bed is suspended high above the ground. Great shafts of light shine through the slats of the bed from above, reaching the middle of the image and fading away into the dusty, dark space below. Behind and around the bed, we can make out a forest scene: tall, thin tree trunks and branches and a bed of leaves or grass below. The image is flooded with an autumnal, brown-ish wash.

The Clare

An ordinary businessman meets a volatile stranger in a park. So begins a fugue of splintered desires and mistaken meanings.

An everyday encounter unspools with enduring consequences. 

Genesis Award winner John R. Wilkinson directs this riveting and hypnotic play.  

When performed at the Young Vic in 2011, Jon Fosse's I am the Wind was described in the Independent as “Some of the greatest theatre I have ever witnessed”.

General tickets for Winter are sold out, but if you would like to book access tickets for any of the audio-described performances or the captioned performance on 23 Feb, please call or email us to take advantage of additional access availability.

GENESIS FOUNDATION

Established by John Studzinski in 2001, the Genesis Foundation works in partnership with the leaders of prestigious UK arts organisations such as LAMDA, the National Theatre, Royal Court, The Sixteen and the Young Vic. Its largest funding commitment is to programmes that support directors, playwrights, actors and musicians in the early stages of their professional lives.

The theme of art & faith increasingly characterises aspects of the Foundation’s work with choral commissions including James MacMillan’s Stabat mater and the sponsorship of the British Museum’s Living with Gods exhibition.
