A Steady Rain

Overview

Following its award-nominated run at the Alexander Bar’s Upstairs Theatre, A Steady Rain transferred to the Fugard Studio for a limited run which opened on 5 October 2016. Adrian Collins directed the production.

Steady Rain takes the audience on a riveting, relentless journey. Using razor-sharp story-telling, writer Keith Huff weaves the perspectives of two Chicago police officers, Joey and Denny, into a harrowing story. Long-time partners and best friends Joey and Denny have serious problems. Joey struggles with alcohol while he secretly obsesses over Denny’s wife. Denny is resentful, aggressive, and a racist cheater. During the compelling and devastating narrative, the audience is kept white-knuckled right until the moment the lights go down.
