A hypnotic noir thriller set in a beguiling world of dream, danger and fantasy.
Stepping out of her home, away from her husband, Chris goes looking for help. Waiting in the darkness are other men. Men who want to listen. Nice men. Men who want all sorts of things.
Selma Dimitrijevic's play Night Time was first staged at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, in 2007.
'Unfolds like a thriller, gradually offering hints and clues in a language that twitches and shivers with possibility' - Guardian
'A chilling, sobering and unsettling debut' - Scotland on Sunday
