Jilly Morgan’s Birthday Party

Wednesday, 17 September 2025
About this event
The incident becomes Jack’s lifelong fixation. He kissed Jilly Morgan, at her own birthday party, and life, for him, will never be the same again.
Jilly Morgan’s Birthday Party takes place across four decades, this is an exciting, time-bending and darkly humorous piece of new writing about the rise and fall of a fantasy. It is a condensed social history and a portrait of a city.
The play, though radically reimagined, is inspired by Anton Chekhov’s short story The Kiss - a tale of love, memory, and fantasy.
