Why Watch The Human voice?

  • The Human voice tells the repenting story of a woman’s love life in this era of depressing times.

  • The show relates to the lives of all those people who have lost in love at some point in their lives.

  • Ruth Wilson is one of the greatest actors of the generation playing the lead character. The brilliant personification of her character is sure to make you miss her lost love too.

  • The show is available at Harold Pinter Theatre in London for three weeks only. Make sure to not miss it.

The Human Voice is a moving monologue written by the French dramatist, poet, filmmaker and artist, Jean Cocteau. His other renowned stage works include Les Parents terribles, La Machine Infernale, L’Aigle à deux têtes and La Machine à écrire.
The show stars Ruth Wilson as the protagonist who puts across the story phenomenally. She is also a two-time Olivier award-winner, Golden Globe winner, and a Tony and BAFTA-nominated actress for her other works.
Jan Versweyveld has designed the show and is produced by Sonia Friedman Productions.

Storyline

The irony of this hyperconnected world today is that a person has never been more isolated than ever.
The show encapsulates the heart-wrenching story of a woman throughout her final breakup with her former lover. It’s a monologue that walks you through the story covering multiple facets of their relationship, gradually heading to be doomed.
Her amazing reinvention of this epic monodrama will undoubtedly be one of the most coveted performances of the year. Don’t miss Ruth Wilson’s return to the West End, which begins on March 17, 2022, for a limited run of 31 performances.
