Leaves of Glass is the sixth adult stage play by Philip Ridley. It premiered at the Soho Theatre in London, England, on 3 May 2007.[1]
The play was commissioned and directed by Lisa Goldman after being greatly impressed by Ridley's previous adult stage play Mercury Fur.[2] The production was Lisa Goldman's first in her tenure as artistic director of the Soho Theatre.[3] Like Mercury Fur the play starred Ben Whishaw in its premiere production.[4]
It is the second entry in Ridley's unofficially titled "Brothers Trilogy", having been preceded by Mercury Fur and followed by Piranha Heights.[5][6][2]
