Beschreibung

Girl after Girl after Girl explores mothers, daughters, and objects from frozen charlotte dolls to cocktails to mad money given by a mother to a daughter and hidden in a wallet. Nicole Cooley’s elegant verses explore the ways collection shapes female identity and the ways in which objects function as elegies. Nineteenth century mourning dresses, Shirley Temples, cakes soaked in whiskey, and Baby Tender Love dolls all describe and circumscribe female identity as the speaker's daughters move from infancy into their teen years.

    A sharply perceptive, darkly funny riff on urban isolation by one of Scotland's leading playwrights.
    This is a big day for Sadie and Bill; their favourite person is coming to visit. They've gone to great lengths to prepare for the occasion. It's an even bigger day for Jackie; and not one she'd anticipated. Should she make the most of it? She doesn't know if she can any more; too many people depend on her.
    Any Given Day explores our fear of the unknown, and our guilt and responsibility towards ourselves and others.
    'as bold, unnerving and fraught as anything McLean has written' - Guardian
    'an excellent play which truly does horrify on so many levels' - Independent
