'I looked at her, wanting her to laugh. Wanting her to share in the joke. But she didn't. She just stared. I knew then, in that moment - that she had taken it literally...' Edinburgh Comedy Award winner Richard Gadd has a chilling story to tell about obsession, delusion and the terrifying ramifications of a fleeting mistake. An unmissable debut play directed by Olivier Award winner Jon Brittain and produced by 2018's double Fringe First-winning Francesca Moody Productions. 'Frankly magnificent' ***** (Fest). 'A true one-off' ***** (Daily Telegraph). 'A mercurial talent' **** (Independent).
