Motherhood, shock, grief, mundane joys and celebrations

Jennifer is waiting for her son to return home from school. But as she reflects on life as a mother, it becomes clear there is something she hasn’t told us. As the story unfolds, we learn the shattering truth.

A meditation on motherhood, Hendon’s writing is first class in this surprising, shocking and heart wrenching monologue, brought to life theatrically by director Paula Chitty and actress, Elizabeth George. 

A finalist at The Kenneth Branagh Award in 2017 where it was hailed a triumph. 

“A Triumph, someone sat behind me and said we should have stood to applaud and I agree. It’s impossible to untangle the roles of writer, director and actor in achieving the outcome but that’s what great theatre is all about, the structure is overlaid with beautiful dialogue.”
