Description

Mother is in prison. Daughter, from whom she has been estranged for 13 years, has come to visit. Closely watched by security personnel, they have 1 hour. As unreliable as she is charming, Mother recounts her version of events, knowing this is their last chance to reconnect. Along a blurry journey of sleep deprivation and abandoned love, we discover the true reason for her imprisonment and ask: how can you keep a hold of yourself when you're forced to get lost in your keeper? A new play from the writer of multi award-winning Bacon. 'Beautiful and devastating' ***** (Stage)
