ZACK

Meet Zack, a warm-hearted young man, whose innocent ineptitude leaves him open to abuse by his cold-blooded brother and scheming mother, who are trying to curry favor with a rich relative.

Spoiler alert, Zack comes out on top and “there is something here about the importance of kindness and the underdog winning that makes the audience exude sighs of contentment…It's a preposterous happy-ever-after tale, but one that should melt the most cynical heart”, says Lyn Gardner of The Guardian.

Written by Harold Brighouse (1882 – 1958), author of the 2025 Drama Desk–nominated Garside’s Career. Lauded by The Guardian as “one of prewar northern England’s most respected but neglected playwrights.”
