Directed by Max Stafford-Clark | Designed by Lucy Osborne | Lighting Design by Johanna Town | Sound Design by Paul Charlier | Musical Director Julian Littman

Dates

6 – 10 October

For Hildy, political activism comes easier than dealing with the disorder of family life: Her druggie son; her philandering husband; and her father, misbehaving in a hugely expensive retirement home. And then there’s her mother – a charismatic 60s pop star, who clings to her former beauty (and a bottle of vodka) and who sets up camp in Hildy’s spare room to belittle her from close range.

By day, Hildy leads the City’s cleaners in revolt against the bankers. But by night, she dreams unsettling acts of violence…

Cast: Jamie Baugham, Giles Cooper, Thusitha Jayasundera, Ciaran McIntyre, Catherine Russell, Mossie Smith and Paula Wilcox.
