*** FRIDAY 27TH JANUARY 2023 IS SOLD OUT ***
Home, I’m Darling is all about the Martins who are living the dream.
Judy is striving to be the perfect 1950s housewife and look after her husband, Johnny. She revels in the joys of domesticity; making cakes, fancy cocktails, and homemade marmalade. And Johnny seems to have it all: an attentive wife, a beautiful home - and a promotion at work on its way.
But behind the gingham curtains in Welwyn Garden City, things are starting to slowly unravel, and it becomes clear that being a stay-at-home woman of the house is not as easy as it seems. Sadly, reality is beginning to creep into their fantasy lifestyle - will their beautiful relationship survive?
Laura Wade's award-winning comedy about sex, cake and the quest to be the perfect housewife will surprise and entertain audiences. The play doesn’t so much sing the praises of the good old days as show us that “nostalgia ain’t what it used to be”.
Home, I’m Darling was first staged at the National Theatre in 2018, winning the Olivier Award for Best New Comedy, and was nominated for the UK Theatre’s Best New Play. Breakaway Theatre Company is excited to bring this play to The Maltings Theatre.
This amateur production of Home, I'm Darling is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.
