What happens when the high-flying corporate girlie finally snaps? Somewhere between a breakdown and a fever dream, Fiona finds herself face to face with an infuriating stranger who knows far too much about her and who, quite frankly, thinks she's a massive dick. With her reality scrutinised and her old wounds reopened, Fiona is forced to confront not only the person she's become, but her very idea of picture-perfect success. A sharp, funny and sincerely touching debut play about burnout, butterfly clips and what happens when the voice in your head stops cheering you on.
