Black Sheep

It’s Easter weekend on the Carter family’s farm.

In the fields, the soil is dying. In the shed, lambing season is in full swing. In the village church, a secret love is blooming. In the front seats of a rusty transit van, a brutal revenge is plotted.

And around the kitchen table, the extended Carter family struggle to face the future.

Black Sheep is a contemporary psalm about rural life, a razor-sharp account of the dilemmas facing generations of farming families.

A curious directive production, a Norfolk-based company, developed with the support of the National Theatre Generate Programme.
