The Soft of Her Palm

"Isn't it funny? The thoughts your brain is capable of having even while you're lying there, bleeding on the carpet?..." The Soft of Her Palm is a devastating exploration of domestic violence, telling the story of Phil and Sarahs troubled and complex relationship. It begins in the present day, moments after Sarah has crashed her car outside Phil's house - by accident or on purpose? As we return to the past and the horrifying story unfolds, our allegiances shift as the truth is slowly revealed. Jumping from moments of sheer joy to volcanic ferocity and underscored with a vein of sharp, brutal humour, the shadow of violence creeps insidiously across the landscape of Chris Dunkleys painfully honest new play.
