Home, I'm Darling by Laura Wade
Advertisement
The house is immaculate. The cocktails are mixed. Every cushion is plumped to perfection.
It's the perfect 1950s home.
There's just one problem.
It's not the 1950s.
Judy has chosen to leave the modern world behind in favour of an idyllic life inspired by the past. She embraces everything from vintage fashion to traditional housekeeping, determined to create the perfect home and the perfect marriage.
But perfection comes at a price.
As the pressures of modern life begin to seep through the cracks, Laura Wade's Olivier Award-winning comedy asks a wonderfully uncomfortable question. Are we really longing for a simpler time, or just an idealised version of one?
Stylish, witty and unexpectedly moving, Home, I'm Darling is as much a love story as it is a comedy. Beneath the vintage wallpaper, retro appliances and fabulous frocks lies a sharp exploration of identity, ambition and the compromises we make for the people we love.
