From Fringe First award-winning writer Tom Brennan and The North Wall, Overtone arrives at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe as a powerful and unflinching new play examining love, memory and the lasting impact of formative experiences.<\/p>\n
The story begins with two teenagers meeting after choir practice, sparking a relationship that will shape their lives. Two decades later, a chance encounter forces them to confront a past they thought long buried, as old wounds and unresolved tensions resurface.<\/p>\n
Told through a non-linear narrative, Overtone explores how relationships are influenced by early experiences, power dynamics and blurred boundaries. As past and present collide, the play delves into the complexities of long-term partnerships, questioning whether it is ever truly possible to escape the forces that first shaped us.<\/p>\n

Balancing emotional depth with sharp insight, the production examines what a \u2018healthy\u2019 relationship looks like and how truth and honesty can emerge from confronting difficult histories.<\/p>\n
With an accomplished creative team led by director John Hoggarth, Overtone continues The North Wall\u2019s tradition of producing bold and thought-provoking new work at the Fringe.<\/p>\n
