UK LGBT EVENTS - Turkey @ The Hope Theatre
< Return to events listings
01 - 14
Turkey @ The Hope Theatre

A tale of Love, Grief and Turkey Basting. Youre manipulative. Youre beautiful and manipulative but it wont last. Madeline wants a baby, so a baby she will have. It doesnt matter that she is in a relationship with a woman, or that they cant afford the high private clinic fees, shell go about getting this child whichever way she can. Together with her partner, the selfless, kind, stable Toni the two women explore all the options available to them but when Madeline gets excited about one possibility in particular alarm bells are raised for Toni. Across London a lonely, not quite yet old older man is attempting to finish his novel (who is he kidding, start his novel) that hes been working on for fifteen years. Michael has had children, three of them. His girls grew up and had children of their own, his son Ben never did, Bens death causing a pain in Michael that would dull but never subside. When Madeline, like a whirlwind, arrives back in Michaels life after twelve years she comes with her own solution to the grief they both feel, not that she will let him know.
