Following its acclaimed premiere performances here at the Kings in 2020, we’re delighted to welcome back National treasure Su Pollard, who gives a one-woman, tour-de-force performance in this razor-sharp and bittersweet dark drama from Fringe First award winner Philip Meeks (Kiss Me Honey, Honey!,Murder, Margaret and Me), directed by Abigail Anderson.

Birdie’s a hoarder. The neighbours call her a harridan and a harpy, although most have never even met her. They see her hoard as a hazard for house prices. But it isn’t rubbish. It’s her life’s work and it exists because years ago something deeply cherished was stolenfrom her; Birdie’s not been able to give up anything since. She’ll do anything to get this priceless thing back. Anything at all.
