First Look at…Synergy Theatre Project’s ‘Lifers’ at Southwark Playhouse

Production images have now been released for Synergy Theatre Project’s latest play Lifers, by Evan Placey running at the Southwark Playhouse until the 25th October.

Inside the walls of HMP Drummond, Baxter, Norton and Lenny pass the time with poker, banter, and the kind of gallows humour only lifers can muster.

When Lenny’s body starts to give out, young prison officer Mark keeps an eye on him. What begins as a duty of care becomes an unexpected friendship, exposing the cracks in a system built to punish, not to support.

The cast for the production is formed of: James Backway, Peter Wright, Sam Cox, Ricky Fearon and Mona Goodwin.

Meanwhile, the creative team behind the production includes: direction by Esther Baker, designs by Katy McPhee, lighting design by Tony Simpson, sound design by Sarah Weltman and casting by Nadine Rennie.
