A revolution grows violent outside the opulent presidential palace of an unnamed country. Inside, four women await the arrival of the embattled dictator: his wife, her best friend, a British journalist, and a translator. As the political tension escalates, time refracts and earlier scenes replay from different perspectives. Morgan, the award-winning British playwright and screenwriter ('The Iron Lady', 'Suffragette'), takes the audience on a breath-taking journey with a fascinating theatricality that is at once compassionate, dispassionate, and probing.
“Abi Morgan has elaborated a play of remarkable intensity and richness. 'Splendour' gleams with ice-cool wit, glistens with the sweat of animal fear.” --Time Out
