Details

Inspired by a newspaper report about the remains of an old lady that were found on a traffic island in the West Midland, the show creates the final expansive moments of Mildred Thomas; an imaginary life that is full of perverse fate, missed opportunity and abandonment. Wild fantasy and grim reality merge in a gentle, humorous and moving story about chance, life choices and the isolation prevalent in people's lives at the start of the 21st century.
