According to Time Out, this 2016 play confirmed Caryl Churchill as ‘our greatest living playwright’. It was the winner of the Best Play Writers’ Guild Awards in 2017. The Drama Llamas are a new Milton Keynes company and we have chosen this play as our debut because of its brilliance and relevance. We love it because it is funny, serious, moving and brave and we hope you will too.
