Elysium Theatre Company present the world premiere of The Moth, a new play by Paul Herzberg.

“You think you know me. You don’t. So it’s time to talk.”

1994: a chance meeting on a train between two men, John, a black British activist and journalist and Marius, a white South African ex-soldier, sets in motion a chain of events that will change their lives for decades to come.

2025: the two men gather to share their story.

Based on an award-winning short monologue that has been seen all over the world, ‘The Moth’ is a thriller that deals with war, race, history, the consequences of our actions and the limits of forgiveness.

The award-winning Elysium Theatre company take to the road again after their sell-out tour of ‘Othello’ with a drama that will grip you from the beginning and not let go.

‘This company can do no wrong.’ – Reviewer Number 9
