Written and directed by Lucy Laing, Last Orders focuses on a reunion of sorts – three old friends who meet up shortly before Christmas to commemorate the passing away of someone they knew years ago. Each has their own story to tell, each their own perspective of the deceased.
Founded by Gemma Harvey and Lou-Lou Mason, Loquitor Theatre (which translates as 'She speaks') are committed to increasing the level of representation of women in theatre. Their latest event Fémage à Trois consists of three female monologues that all have a very different story to tell. The first, I Don’t Care, (written by Charlotte O’Leary) examines a teenager who is the sole carer for a violent father who has dementia.
