Description

Krista lives in London. Pip lives in Malta. They're sisters. They're close. Even distance couldn't tear them apart. However, for as long as they can remember, their father has always enjoyed a drink. Finally reunited, they're beginning to see things as they truly are. Based on her own lived experience, Bettina Paris' new play is a heartfelt comedy drama about family, migration, and the complex realities of addiction. 'Very funny. It's hugely entertaining, and tense, and unnerving, and then very moving in its denouement. And brilliantly performed' (James Grieve).
