A modern thriller with ancient roots, from the winner of the Most Promising New Playwright 2024 award (OffWestEnd). The bark climbs my body like the rising level of the sea. I wonder what will happen when it reaches my heart. When a woman tells a lie to her friend, a seed is planted that grows in the dark. Now the roots break the pavement, and the branches invade through the windows. As she begins to see things that no one else can, she becomes the center of some seriously unwanted attention. A queer urban parable about passion, power, and photosynthesis, "Sap" by Rafaella Marcus, is her first full-length play, which premiered at Roundabout @ Summerhall as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in August 2022. "A wonderful tapestry of a play." - Guardian.
