Drawn together by circumstance, three characters embark on a journey that curves upward into the light. Humane, “bravely comic,” and compassionate, Frozen is an extraordinary play that explores the human capacity for forgiveness and change.
What the Critics Say
“…[a] fine play…so concentrated and unflinching that at times it takes your breath away.” –The Observer
“A major play…thrilling, humane and timely.” –The Times (London)
“This is the great gift of live theater: to carry us safely away…and to return us wiser and unharmed.” –Anne Nicolai, Night & Day
“…[a] big, brave, compassionate play about grief, revenge, forgiveness and bearing the unbearable…touches greatness.” –The Guardian
“Consistently surprising and even bravely comic…The almost thriller-like promise of the play’s climactic confrontation is like a time-bomb ticking in the back of your head.” –The Independent

Honour is a touching tale of what happens when a man who has been married for 32 years decides to defy mortality. George, a journalist and TV interviewer in his early sixties, is happily married to Honor, a talented poet who gave up fame to support George’s career and bring up their daughter Sophie. Honor bears no grudges, believing that her life has been fulfilled, until she is startled into a painful re-examination.
