A family gathers following a son’s death to tackle unfinished business provoked by cultural tensions and an absent father, in Beru Tessema’s absorbing play
Families are complex and the relationships between parents and children and siblings themselves is a rich basis for drama. Beru Tessema’s new play House of Ife is a tense and fascinating insight into the dynamics of a British-Ethiopean family, living in London, and navigating life and personal grief in the wake of the sudden death of the eldest son, Ife.
