The play provides a lot of food for thought. What seems to come through most strongly in the final analysis is an inability for the two sisters to connect meaningfully and their portrayal of the tragedy of not knowing someone anymore.

Review: THE URMETAZOAN, Hampstead Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Sep 25, 2026

In a rental in Florida, Abigail is helping Alice to pack: the Nobel Prize winner and decorated scientist is leaving Earth to further space research. The two sisters haven’t spoken in seven years. Alex Rugman delivers a tender representation of sisterhood. Dorothea Myer-Bennett and Meghan Treadway are gently impressive, slowly pulling back the layers of sororal loyalty and love to reveal a quiet reflection on resentment and inadequacy. Anna Ledwich directs an unhurried production that tends to its humour as much as it cherishes its emotional side.
