97 years go by in a flash; an afternoon lasts an eternity. In a care home lounge, Marsha begins the last day of her life. She cannot go quietly. As radiators burn and Jeremy Kyle blares, rivalries and relatives jostle for space on the Axminster carpet. Packed with witty observations, this mesmerising new show shines a light on how we cope, or don’t cope, with ageing.

“Brilliant and reckless, precise and inventive, intelligent and frank. Don’t miss them!” New York Theatre Guide
