In this production, I wanted to explore our need for trust and connection within the relationship of ‘Lucy’ and ‘Bubs’. Mason’s poetic writing allows for greater nuance in its delivery, and whilst the two characters are frequently at each other’s throats, bickering like an old married couple, there is a deep level of love and respect at its core.

As a director, it was an exciting challenge to develop the immersive comedic action of the play, whilst subtly tackling some poignant issues: two angels choosing to navigate trauma in two different extremes. This leads us to question: how can we find the middle ground? Can trust that was lost be regained?

I wish for audiences to experience joy and laughter whilst reflecting on how we, as a society, choose to label and categorise. Are we all angelically “good” or devilishly “bad”? Can we choose to learn and accept those who are different from us?
