Drama

Page Navigation

Jane has been alone for 369 days. She talks to her cat, her stuffed animals, and stolen masterpieces on her wall. She’s perfected the art of making Velveeta mac and cheese and debating whether buying holy water on Amazon counts as sacrilege. Then Nell walks into her flat.

Two women. One small Glasgow flat. The last survivors they’ve each seen in nearly a year. As Jane’s neurotic chatter collides with Nell’s meditative silence, they begin to build something neither expected: friendship.

A darkly comic two-hander about what it means to be human when the world has ended. What do we hold onto? What do we let go? And how do you make friends when there’s nobody left to meet?
