We're their food source and we're heading towards extinction.
Mia is going out of her mind. Her baby won't feed; Alfie is being bullied at school; Joe is working long night shifts at a job he won't talk about. The upstairs neighbour keeps blasting music at 2 a.m. Another mutilated body has been found floating in the Thames.
Then Mia meets Ana, Alfie's art teacher, who proposes an unconventional route to empowerment.
Apex Predator opened at Hampstead Theatre, London, in March 2025.
John Donnelly's plays include The Pass and Bone (both Royal Court), versions of The Seagull (Headlong/UK Tour) and Tartuffe (National Theatre) and The Knowledge (Bush Theatre). He has written for television on shows by Dennis Kelly (Utopia, Channel 4) and Jack Thorne (Glue, Channel 4), and his screen adaptation of The Pass, starring Russell Tovey, opened the BFI Flare Festival in 2014. His plays have been published by Faber since 2007.
