Adult Child/Dead Child

by Claire Dowie

Adult Child/Dead Child had 3 performances over 21 years ago (between the 7th of March 2003 and the 25th of May 2003) at Norden Farm Centre for the Arts and Cecil Hepworth Playhouse

Adult Child, Dead Child recounts with painful lucidity a loveless child\'s experience of rejection by her family. Originally a monologue Jane Walters clevely didided for five actresses representing different ages and aspects of the character. Jane\'s direction of the piece was highly inventive and very physical. This exciting production was among the award-winners at the Elmbridge Drama Festival and went on to win the Divisional Final at Woking
