Come and meet Claire, an ambassador's wife with blood on her hands; Sophia from Italy; Sara, the local spirit weaver; and Sam, a northern businesswoman who says it how it is.
Alison Skilbeck showcases her versatility by writing and performing all the roles in a script made up of four character-revealing monologues – tied together by cross-references that fill in some of the back- and future-stories of the others. A newly divorced woman begins to come out of her mourning and rejoin life without fully realising she’s doing it, a cafe owner describes a chaotic night, a psychic healer discovers that a trusted client has betrayed her and a tough businesswoman reveals a soft and vulnerable core. The tales range from sad to farcical, and the touches of interconnection – such as the restauranteur noticing the divorcee – round out a sense of the characters beyond what they say about themselves.
And knowing each character so fully, Skilbeck the actress can fully develop and enrich what Skilbeck the writer has created.
After the performance Alison will hold a “Question & Answer” session with the audience.
“Go see how comedy character acting is done.” Miranda Hart
