LEARNING
A brand-new play with an original score and captivating movement, LEARNING unravels the poignant journey of Debs and Jonathan—a couple hurtling in opposite directions.
As Jonathan embraces the Jewish faith he’s spent a lifetime evading, Debs, disaffected by years of trying to live up to religious imperatives, yearns to break free. With moments of raw conflict and fleeting calm, they wrestle with the past, grapple with the present, and question whether their love can weather the divide.
LEARNING offers a heartfelt and thought-provoking exploration of identity, belief, and what it means to truly connect with others and with ourselves.

Hilary gained her BA at Nottingham and her MA at the Painting School of the The Royal College of Art, London. She lives in London and works from her studio in Bethnal Green. Hilary is a member of The Printmakers Council and The East London Print Studio. Most of the prints on display are one-off monoprints which are multilayered images using materials such as lino, perspex and stencils to achieve the required layering and painterly depth.
Hilary’s work is in many public and private collections worldwide including the Victoria and Albert Museum and The Museum of London; The Zeiss Collection in Hamburg, Germany; and The L.V Prasad Eye Hospital in Hyderabad, India. She works in several mediums including acrylics, watercolours, printing and embroidery. This current exhibition includes includes new acrylic paintings and monoprints based on riverscapes in Bath and Oxford, worked up from watercolours and sketches made in-situ.
Other themes illustrated at the Lauderdale House Exhibition include sumptuous still lives, the Beauty of Nature, steamy jazz clubs and images of isolation with solitary figures viewing the outside world from mysterious interiors.
During the lockdown months, Hilary researched Greek Myths and was inspired by Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine who was taught his art by snakes. He is remembered to this day by the use of the serpent in the badges and arms of medical associations around the world. There is also on display a painting depicting the Three Greek Fates: Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos who respectively spun, measured and finally cut the Thread of Life. A particularly appropriate concept during the Pandemic.
