Sink is a new one-woman show written and devised by a small company of just two women - the director, Helena Middleton, and the actor, Olivia Emden. Following the recent success of other one-woman shows such as Fleabag and The Edge of Our Bodies, Sink explores similar issues yet portrayed through a vastly different lens. A narrative made up solely of anecdotes that have occurred in a bathroom, this is a one-woman show with a difference. Through dental floss, and fluoride, shower-caps and shampoo, Sink makes its audience privy to a young girl's life and her relationship with her mother, in a wholly original and unexpected way. Playing around with the idea of storytelling, Sink promises laughs, penguins, and a tender portrayal of human relations, all around a bathroom sink. A black comedy with original music composed by Bristol based music producer Jack Drewry.
