Never Tell Me The Odds at Old Red Lion Theatre

Script-in-hand performance

It’s Christmas Eve in a private London rehab.

Three days sober and fraying at the seams, Maddy is stuck in a place where the lights are fluorescent, the tree is dull, and connection is both the threat and the cure. When ghosts from her past come crashing through the walls - the married man she nearly ruined herself for, the soft-hearted friend she almost loved, the night she almost stepped into traffic - Maddy is forced to confront the life she was desperate to disappear from.

In a room full of strangers, she must decide whether to keep haunting the living while conversing with the dead, or to claw her way back to reality. Never Tell Me The Odds is a raw, sharply funny drama about addiction, the unbearable weight of being seen, and the terrifying hope of staying alive long enough for things to get better.
