Acclaimed New Drama, Pests, Comes To Ignite The Playhouse Studio

Following the success of her award-winning play Mogadishu, playwright Vivienne Franzmann returns to Liverpool with another explosive drama Pests. Following the fractious relationship of two sisters, and with sell-out performances at the London Royal Court, Clean Break Theatre Company come to the Playhouse Studio from Wednesday 28th to Saturday 31st May.

Pink loves Rolly. Rolly loves Pink and Pink loves getting bombed off her face. Sisters from the same nest; both trapped in a tiny rotting world. Both cuffed to a past that refuses to release them. One wants out. The other needs her in. Trouble is that when you complete each other, you’re nothing on your own.
