BACON is an acclaimed British play by Sophie Swithinbank, directed by Émiley Louise. The raw, electrified thriller continues into its second year at Theatre Anesis, featuring Giorgos Beno and Alexandros Piechoviak. The work explores themes of violence, desire and deep emotional wounds that never fully heal. The play tells the story of two teenage boys from distinctly different social backgrounds who meet within a world of school violence, oppression and unspoken desire. Their relationship begins as friendship but evolves into dependence, attraction and conflict. This collision leaves a profound trauma that follows them into adulthood.
