World Première
TOBACCOLAND
by Alex Finlayson
directed by Gregory Hersov
Following the highly acclaimed WINDING THE BALL and MISFITS, TOBACCOLAND is the third Alex Finlayson play that has been specially commissioned by the Royal Exchange. A grand scale saga of a North Carolina family fighting over the future of their tobacco growing business. Ghostly figures from the past rise up to join those in the present to converge into a transfiguring resolution.
Renowned for her atmospheric and adventurous stagecraft, Mobil prize-winner Alex has written for TV, radio and film and has recently moved to North Carolina where she lives with her two children.
