The Utah Bride

Work:: The Utah Bride (S1133816150)

16-year-old Alice lives in a small village where nothing ever happens. One day a mormon missionary knocks on the door and alice invites him in. She defies her Welsh methodist upbringing and runs away with him to live the American dream. four years later she arrives home to the wrath of her matriarchal mother. Revelations, confessions and healing take place between a mother and daughter divided by religion, men and anger. Often the worse war is the one at home, fought between knife and fork, table and chair. This play explores the meaning of home and family, and asks if the grass is greener on the other side.
