1 Show, 3 Plays Endless ways to be a Mammy, or not& Play #1: Oh Baby, Baby! Peer inside the mind of pregnant teenager Aoife. This one-woman show exposes the fear, guilt, shame and secret joyof an unplanned pregnancy in 1990s Dublin. This is notthe world of The Snapper - it's much more middle class. Play #2: State of Grace? Sick of stigma about being single and childless?Tired of talking about your sex life with strangers? Certain you won't change your mind about babies? So is Grace. Feel the frustration as she undergoes interrogation in disguise as a dinner party. Familiar territory to women of a 'certain age'. Play #3: Lost and Found You've heard of an 'out of body experience'?Some events are so frightfully awful, so traumatisinglytragic, that we need to escape our own selves to survive. Michie is having a miscarriage. Her flesh feels every excruciating moment, but her mindfloats away to find refuge. Can she ever piece together thefragments of her fragile body and soul?

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD

Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society. A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
