Modern Plays

A programme text edition published to coincide with the world premiere at the Royal Court Theatre, London, on 27 February 2009.

Take one baby and a mother who''s not sure if she''s ready. Add a soldier returned from war and a grandmother holding the fort. Mix in a landscape of flatness and a pinch of violence in the countryside and maybe, just maybe, you''ll get a miracle.

A play about wanting a better life.
