Fantasist. Addict. Manic Depressive. Mother.

For years, Martha has been making her children’s lives hell. But now they’re in trouble and they need her help. Mia’s been suspended from boarding school, Henry’s dropped out of college and Dad’s flying back from Hong Kong looking for someone
to blame.

Can Martha find the strength to behave like a proper mother? Or will the dark truth at the heart of the family finally rip it apart?

Polly Stenham’s savage portrait of a family in crisis ignited the London stage when it debuted in 2007. Now in a startling new production by Richard Wilson, the play makes its English Regional Première in Sheffield.
