'Ever get the feeling you're going round in one big circle? Ten years. Back and forth between a trio of arseholes and nothing to show for it except a baby, an Argos ring and a busted nose.

Moving, truthful and darkly comic, Box Clever by nabokov's associate-playwright Monsay Whitney, with music performed by Avi Simmons, is a new play about one woman's experience of a refuge and a mother's commitment to do the best for her daughter.
