Andy, brain-damaged and physically incapacitated from birth, has a mental age of ten months. Carol, his anxiety-ridden mother, has arranged a small family party to celebrate Andy's 21st birthday. Not that he's counting. But Carol is. Counting the minutes until he arrives, counting the unexpected guests, counting the times that this has happened before. A witty and heartfelt look at family life when it doesn t turn out quite the way you imagined.

The debut play from Olivier and BIFA award-winning actor Rory Kinnear. A domestic family drama set on Andy Griffith's 21st Birthday, The Herd is a humorous and touching look at the minutiae of living with severe mental and physical disability.
