Summary |
First performed at the Lyric Hammersmith Studio in London in 1998, 'Handbag' is an angry, satirical, penetrating play about parenthood, which collides a reimagining of events from Wilde's 'The Importance of Being Earnest' with the life of a newborn baby in the nineties, the child of a lesbian couple and a gay couple, whose familial fantasy about the advantages for a child of having four rather than two parents is shattered by fear and infidelity |
