Join us for Mercury Reads a series of lively rehearsed readings celebrating local voices and fresh new writing. Each event spotlights an exciting playwright from our region, giving audiences the chance to see new stories take shape for the very first time.In this session, join us in the Upstairs Bar on Fri 20 Feb at 4pm as we look at Mercury Reads: Kingdom Come by Lydia Sabatini.
Two women with metastatic cancer enter a cabin in the forest… and see some strange things.
Barb and Claudia are two not-quite-friends in their 70s who head deep into a forest to get some rest and relaxation. They get on well despite their differences: Barb wants to be in nature, Claudia hates dirt and wants to cook and play music.
But when one day Barb returns from the forest totally changed, their different attitudes, to life, illness and family start to come between them, threatening to uproot everything they know about themselves and how they want to spend the time they have left.
