About

David Storey’s Home brings together two strangers who meet in what appears to be a peaceful garden. As they exchange polite conversation, fragments of memory and snatches of confession slowly reveal deeper truths. Beneath the surface civility lies loneliness, fragility, and the quiet struggle for connection.

First staged at the Royal Court in 1970, Home is a sharp, humane exploration of memory, belonging, and the fine line between order and chaos. Both funny and heartbreaking, it remains one of Storey’s most enduring and powerful plays.
