'I thought everyone's parents spoke like that. Then I realised.' A penetrating play about belonging, family and the limitations of communication. Billy's family, like every other, is a club, with its own private language, jokes and rules. You can be as rude as you like, as possessive as you like, as critical as you like.

It won Best New Play at the Off-West End Theatre Awards. Tribes had its US premiere at the Barrow Street Theatre, Off-Broadway, in 2012, winning the 2012 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Play and the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for Best Foreign Play.
