When Frankie is allocated Alice in Wonderland as her graduating design project at drama school, she is far from thrilled.
A children’s story? Really? Frankie hopes that her childhood box of costumes might inspire some ideas. Instead, she is sent spiraling down a rabbit hole of memories.
Pear-Shaped is a deliciously dark comedy about growing up, growing down and everything in between.
Adapting moments from Lewis Carroll’s classic ‘Alice in Wonderland’, Pear-Shaped is a magically inventive new story about two sisters and the illness that comes between them.
Please note that Pear-Shaped contains references to disordered eating, mental health, body image, and some coarse language.
