Lali
When Lali goes to a job interview, to tutor the children of the affluent Bamford family, things take an unexpected turn.
After falling asleep in a wendy house in the family’s garden, she refuses to leave; preferring the insular, pretend realm of the house, over the grief that awaits her in the real world. Over the course of a week, the Bamfords are forced to look at themselves anew through the gaze of this new intruder, and Lali too must come to face what she has refused to acknowledge.
This free performance is brought to you as part of International Women’s Day.
Content to Consider
Strong language, and adult themes concerning grief and death.
