Synopsis
It's Andy Griffith's 21st Birthday. Not that he's counting. But his mother Carol is. Counting the minutes until he arrives, counting the unexpected guests, counting the times that this has happened before. Award-winning actor Rory Kinnear's debut play is a witty and heartfelt look at a family falling apart and pulling together when life doesn't turn out quite the way they imagined.
The Herd received its world premiere at London's Bush Theatre in September 2013, in a production directed by Howard Davies.
