FOX by Katie Guicciardi
by Carbon Theatre and Cultural Projects Ltd.theatre
“They call me Mum. Everyone calls me Mum now. Or Mummy. I had a name before. Where did that go?”
about the production
Inspired by true events, Katie Guicciardi’s Fox is a brutally honest and amusing exploration of new motherhood in an increasingly isolating society. A sharply observed drama that examines our complex relationship with ‘help’; our desire to give it and the need to seek it for ourselves.
