Geelong Repertory Theatre Company
Home, I'm Darling
Written by Laura Wade
Directed by Robyn Birrell
19th April - 4th May
Home, I'm Darling is an inciteful comedy about love, cake and the quest to be the perfect 1950s couple.
Judy has Johnny's slippers waiting for him when he arrives home from work, the kitchen's clean, the rooms are aired...yet this is not the 1950’s, but a 21st-century 'arrangement' agreed between the two of them. With clothes, furniture and a (faulty) fridge from the ‘50s, Judy and Johnny try to 'live the dream' but the real world pierces their bubble and the cracks begin to appear.
Home, I’m Darling won the 2019 Olivier Award for Best New Comedy and is full of big skirts and even bigger questions. How can we cope with the pressures of modern life? What do we lose in the present when we pine for the past? And can you get stains out of a shirt with just lemon juice and baking soda?
An Amateur Production By Arrangement with ORiGiN™ Theatrical. On Behalf of RIGHTS HOLDER.
