About The Vertical Hour
The Vertical Hour centers on Nadia Blye, a young American war correspondent turned academic who now teaches Political Studies at Yale. A brief holiday with her boyfriend in the Welsh borders brings her into contact with a kind of Englishman whose culture and beliefs are a surprise and a challenge, both to her and to her relationship.
The Vertical Hour marks the first time in playwright David Hare's (Stuff Happens) career that one of his plays will have a world premiere in the U.S.
