Description

Maddy and Rory are devoted parents to 3-year-old Joshua, committed to keeping him happy and safe. But when an everyday visit to a supermarket cafe turns into a far more troubling incident, their trust even in those closest to them is shattered. Fear and doubt consume them, until they reach a savage breaking point. Gut is a taut psychological thriller that explores who we can trust with our children. And whether it's more dangerous not to trust at all.

Reviews

'A vision of a society where hypervigilance has replaced trust, where the gap between sensible parental oversight and pathological control is frighteningly small... holds the audience spellbound... exposes a fault line of social dysfunction with a relentless and transfixing logic'

* Guardian *

'Picks at the psychological sores of a post-Yewtree climate... takes leaps out of the ordinary to illustrate the extremes a mother's love sometimes must endure'

* Herald *

'Accurately pinpoints parental fears and explores them with innard-wrenching effect'

* The Stage *


Awards
Winner of Best Play - Writers' Guild Awards 2019.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
