Awkward Squad, The



Awkward Squad, The

Synopsis:
Lorna earned her campaigning spurs during the miners' strike of the 1980s. Now in her seventies, she is being honoured for her continuing community work with an honorary doctorate from the local university. However, any hopes of a quiet time for Lorna are scuppered over the course of one weekend, when her daughters and granddaughter come home to Tyneside to share her big moment. News of impending divorce, redundancy, her granddaughter's exorbitant wedding plans and a boob job won in a raffle force Lorna to reconsider both her past and the future. Karin Young's play is a state-of-the-nation comedy, examining women's lives today through the challenges faced by three generations of women from the same family. Told with a deftly comic touch, this is a play that will have audiences cheering Lorna and her family on to a future where nothing will ever be the same for any of them. What's a woman to do? Accept everything that gets thrown at her, or become a fully paid-up member of the 'awkward squad'?
