    We’re in Stella’s head. Everything is shifting. Her mother is ill and seeing the future. Her sister is struggling to cope as a single mum. Stella’s old boyfriend is back. Then gone. Then back. Does she want him? Is her mother really sick? Why is everyone eating so many fish? As Stella grapples with the reality of her familial relationships and her romantic relationship, she is forced to unpick the roles that have been made to define her, and uncover both what is real and what is true.

    Small Justice is a stream-of-consciousness play, co-created by Maddy Accalia and Seán Butler.

Well, I’m happy to say that on a rainy Thursday evening, the theatre was completely full.
