Lavender, Hyacinth, Violet, Yew @ The Bush Theatre

Soil-soaked jeans and dirt under their fingernails, 19-year-old Pip is trying to find themself through gardening. But with a Dad more interested in plants than people and a Mum stuck in the past, theyre left to ponder lifes questions alone. Until one day, they uncover a jacket in the attic thats been gathering dust. Bold, vibrant and very 80s, in its pocket lies a diary belonging to someone long gone. Swept up in the mystery, Pip is determined to dig into the past, unearthing secrets about an old friend their Mum and Dad dont want to talk about Funny, affecting and beautifully queer, Lavender, Hyacinth, Violet, Yew journeys through one familys efforts to reconcile the past to plant the seeds of a better future. This world-premiere production is written by Bush Emerging Writers Group alumni Coral Wylie, directed by Debbie Hannan (Overflow), and with a cast including the writer alongside BAFTA and Olivier Award nominee Omari Douglas (Its a Sin, Constellations).
