Her island retreatremote, wild, windsweptshould be peaceful, but between the kids, the endless mess, and the unsettling discovery in the garden, theres no peace to be found.
Anna is not just fraying at the edgesshes unravelling. And the past is creeping in through the cracks.
As she grapples with her own maternal ambivalence, a buried history begins to rise. Set against the eerie backdrop of a Scottish island,Night Wakingis a dark, vicious, and unexpectedly funny one-woman play about exhaustion, colonialism, and the things we wish we could unearthor forget.
With a script that flickers between biting humour and unbearable tension, this adaptation of Sarah Mosssnovel by Shireen Mula is an electric, unmissable solo performance.
