Escaped Alone
Written by Caryl Churchill | Directed by Judy Braha
In Escaped Alone, four older women gather in a backyard to sip tea, express their fears, longings and unpack life as they see it, inside and outside the back fence.
The play ” is a light-on-its-feet, elliptical view of apocalypse. It runs for less than an hour… This is fantasy intricately wired into current politics. It is intimate and vast. Domestic and wild…” – The Guardian
