Bristol School of Acting present The Lower Depths

Gorky’s 1902 masterpiece is brought to life in an ensemble production by graduating students of Bristol School of Acting.

Locked away from the sun, a group of thieves, fallen aristocrats and weary dreamers exchange wit and heavy truths. When a mysterious pilgrim arrives with tales of a better world, a spark of hope ignites, but comfort built on illusions is tested.
