Dolly
“When anyone meets me, this is what they see. I’m never met, not really.”
Dolly BY Chantelle Dusette
Until you own your story, your story will own you.
We meet WOMAN, who has visible third-degree burns, as she unpacks how she navigates all her relationships with COUNSELLOR. During therapy sessions WOMAN is forced to revisit her childhood and in particular, her relationship with her estranged mother. With her 40th birthday fast approaching, WOMAN’S desire to work out how this has affected her comes into sharp focus as she considers becoming a parent herself.
Dolly supports The Katie Piper Foundation..
DOLLY is an uncompromising, dynamic story, using spoken word and movement. This high-octane drama, with biting comedy, examines how childhood trauma manifests itself into adulthood.
DOLLY will premiere at the Park Theatre, from 23-28 May as part of the Come What May Festival.
Directed by Emily Aboud
