Faith, Hope and Charity
Faith, Hope and Charity
Zeldin is an Associate Director of London’s National Theatre and has had his plays performed throughout Europe. Following his June 2022 Une mort dans la famille, he returns to Luxembourg with Faith, Hope and Charity, the final play in the trilogy. Developed in collaboration with those who have lived experience of the issues explored, these works are a response to the hardships for those left unsupported by Britain’s decade of austerity. The first of the three plays, Beyond Caring (part of 2016’s TalentLAB, for which Zeldin was a mentor), covered zero-hours contracts. The second, LOVE, was set in a homeless hostel. Now Faith, Hope and Charity shows a community centre where one volunteer sets up a choir and the heroic manager tries to fend off closure.
