Celebrity, sex, men, fashion, death - all come under the piercing gaze of Norman Tortilla, an old man who’s never been kissed and wants the world to listen. But with only a bath-obsessed Polish care worker and a feisty young saleswoman for company, will he get his dying wish? The premiere of Charlotte Coates debut play heralds the emergence of an inspired new voice in British playwriting.

‘A little gem of a play… an astonishing debut, remarkably well-crafted and detailed, both hilarious and disturbing’ - FringeReview

Presented by Sheer Drop alongside ‘A Lady of Substance’ by Jon Cooper

Pairing the works of an established and an emerging playwright, Sheer Drop Theatre presents two vital new plays that plumb the dark humorous depths of life in modern Britain.

Press night: Fri 23 March, 8.45pm (not on public sale)
