“I suppose I never questioned why I was only one piece before”
A woman trapped at home during an air raid.
A mother who starts to see double.
A whole life in one breath.
Three short plays by Alistair McDowall introduce us to three women whose ordinary lives mask extraordinary internal worlds.
This trilogy includes the brand new plays Northleigh, 1940 and In Stereo alongside all of it, previously performed in 2020.
Written for and performed by Kate O’Flynn, this brand new production will run at the Royal Court and the Avignon Festival.
