That Face By Polly Stenham

Mia is at boarding school and has access to her mother's drugs. She gets into trouble for drugging a fellow student, causing her father to return to England from Hong Kong. Henry, her brother, has dropped out of school to stay at home and look after his alcoholic mother. Martha, their fading glamorous mother, controls their lives whilst her own sick mind and world crumble around her.

Polly Stenham's award winning play is a hard-hitting, intense and darkly comic study of the effects of mental illness on the family unit and the common predicament of children caring for dysfunctional parents.
