The Story
One call can change a life; one call can change your life.
Set in contemporary Belfast, The Human Voice is a bold reimagining of Jean Cocteauās seminal play, bringing
its emotional intensity into a world that never stops ringing.
As professional responsibility collides with personal heartbreak, she is pushed to her limits, forced to keep listening, keep responding, keep going. In this world, heartache isnāt indulgent or poetic; itās something you keep in your back pocket as you get on with the job of helping others survive.
A raw, intimate portrait of resilience, connection, and the quiet bravery of showing up when everything inside you is falling apart.
This edition was published to coincide with the production at Lyric Theatre Belfast in February 2026.
