“Sex, money and motherhood” – Philadelphia Mag

When Vivie discovers that her expensive education was funded by her mother’s prosperous string of brothels, her worldview is shattered. With judgements flying, truths to tell and morals in contention, mother and daughter go head to head in a confrontation that neither will ever forget.

Celebrated New Zealand theatre-maker Eleanor Bishop, adapts and directs this audacious revival that challenges the heady aroma of male privilege in the workplace – whatever your profession.

Exploding with controversy, this rarely-performed censored classic returns for a liberating evening of sophisticated scandal.
