Seahorse

OVERVIEW

  • Playwright

    Christiane O'Mahony 

  • Synopsis

    At 35, Mara is an overqualified underachiever. She works part time in an aquarium, eats ice-cream for breakfast and likes ticking 'single' on forms. She fancies the notion of a threesome… but you can’t have a threesome if you have a baby. A surreal underwater experience about trying to be grown-up and wishing you were a seahorse.
