Is It Too Late Now To Say Sorry?
Adam Lenson • Professional company
About Adam Lenson
Adam Lenson returns to Summerhall with a new collision of gig, storytelling and autobiographical investigation at the Red Lecture Theatre, Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Moving from synagogue to school playground, from online feuds to family drama, the show examines the way we apologise, the pain we carry and the opportunities for healing amidst the damage. A personal and wide-ranging investigation into one small but loaded word. The show runs for 60 minutes, is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over, and contains strong language and distressing themes.
Why see this show?
Lenson builds something genuinely unusual here — part gig, part confession, part cultural excavation. A show about apology that takes the subject seriously without ever becoming heavy-handed.
