Rockpools

Edinburgh 2026

Rockpools is a darkly funny, one-woman play about hoarding, loss and endometriosis. The Woman is unhappily married and harbouring a huge secret. When her in-laws suddenly die, she struggles to cope with her grieving husband, and begins hoarding seaside-themed objects in Room Number 4. As the room fills with taxidermy seals, shells and quite a few fish, her marriage disintegrates and she must come to terms with a loss of her own. Don't miss this hilarious and poignant debut from actor and comedian Molly Windust. ***** (The Student). 'Immensely fruitful... smart writing' (Chortle.co.uk).
