Vile

Give us voice; we who blot the margins, the fallen and forgotten, the minimised and maligned.
Welcome to the court of Henry VIII. The parties are bigger, the cockfights are wilder and theres more scandal than you can shake a jousting lance at. Frankly, its a bloody nightmare.Enter Jane Parker. Minor noble, major worrier. The flash, young brother of Anne Boleyn is being thrust upon her, but Jane would rather retreat to the countryside away from the crowds, pestilence and power-hungry politics of courtly life. Newly entangled with the Boleyns, Jane begins to battle intrusive thoughts that warn of constant danger. It's difficult not to lose your head when you're fighting your own mind. Will Jane crumble in a world of backstabbing and betrayal? Or will she play the game and do whatever it takes to survive?
VILE is a rude and radical re-evaluation of Anne Boleyns infamous sister-in-law, celebrating queer and disabled identities in an era where neither were recognised. When marginalised narratives are so often twisted and erased, the question is - does history deserve to be rewritten?
Time & Again Theatre Company present the very first preview of their brand new show VILE in partnership with Cast, the Lowry and OCD UK, and supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
This is Time & Agains latest play with creative integrated access following the multi-award winning EARWIG, which won the Offie Award for Best Show of Edinburgh Fringe 2022 as well as the Birds of Paradise Emerging Talent Award. VILE is directed by Ellie Rose, written by Laura Crow and produced by Courtenay Johnson.
