Susan Eve Haar’s psychological thriller ECHO is getting a revival at the King’s Head Theatre in London this summer.
ECHO will run at the King’s Head Theatre from 18 July to 17 August 2025.
The play will star Amara Okereke (A Streetcar Named Desire, Sheffield Crucible; My Fair Lady, West End) and Kyle Rowe (Young Sherlock, Amazon; Those About To Die, Peacock).
ECHO, previously titled Paper Doll, has had two successful runs at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and 59E59 in New York.
The play is set at a secluded B&B in upstate New York, where a couple arrives to celebrate their tenth anniversary. The room is romantic, garish, off-kilter. So is she. Unstable, sensual, unpredictable – she wants something dangerous. He’s desperate to please her. But as champagne flows and erotic games escalate, the night spirals into something darker, more surreal… until a baby, a blade, and a secret crack everything open.
Twenty years later, another couple returns to the same room to scatter her mother’s ashes. But something lingers in the wallpaper, in the fan’s rhythmic hum, in the echoes of the past. She’s never been here before, at least not this version of her…
ECHO is directed by Abigail Zealey Bess, and has design by Peiyao Wang, lighting design by Daniel Carter-Brennan, sound design by Julian Starr, video and projection design by Matt Powell, and casting by Nicholas Hockaday.
Writer Susan Eve Haar said in a statement: “I’m thrilled that ECHO will be up in London with amazing actors – how lucky we are to have Amara and Kyle – an awesome production staff, and most of all, an English audience! ECHO resonates as an exploration of identity and love in a brave new world, and I look forward to seeing what more is uncovered in this production.”
ECHO is playing at the King’s Head Theatre from 18 July to 17 August 2025.
