PESTS by Vivienne Franzmann
Directed by Jess Gough
“Lookin’ down an’ dere a pool of blood dat was me. In da sand. It was me. An’ da sea came in an’ tooked da blood away, washed it out an’ I thinked I am part of dis world. I am part of dis. I am part of dis world.”
Sisters from the same nest. Both trapped in a tiny, rotting world. Both cuffed to a past that refuses to release them. Trouble is that when you complete each other, you’re nothing on your own.’Pests’ is a hard hitting, claustrophobic drama about sisterhood and trying to escape your past.
Trigger Warnings: depictions of drug use, depictions of poverty, squalor, and neglect, pregnancy, including complex circumstances around motherhood and loss of children, sexual abuse, childhood trauma, prison experiences, cycles of institutionalisation, violence (both implied and explicit) mental illness and explicit language including ableist slurs.
Age Guidance: 16+
Please note, this show has a strict no re entry policy.
