Her use of humour can be shocking but it helps to balance out the weighty issues being explored: guilt, gender and family politics, sex as both a commodity and a weapon. Touching, funny and brutal, this is – on many levels – an impressive first work.\" - Exeunt\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThe Wasp (2015): \"Morgan Lloyd Malcolm's two-hander is sprung like a bear trap, a play with very sharp teeth.\" - The Stage\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eMum (2021): \"Lloyd Malcolm, who resurrected a 17th-century feminist poet for her riotous 2018 hit Emilia, here spills the dark side of modern maternity: exhausted anxiety, love-hate co-dependency, what happens when your very worst fears come true.\" - Evening Standard\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eWhen The Long Trick's Over (2022): \"Grief can feel like drowning. And in Morgan Lloyd Malcolm's play about a swimmer with the challenge to cross the Channel, it is voluminous.\" - Guardian\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThe Passenger (2021): Originally commissioned and produced by Shakespeare's Globe, this piece recounts the experience of the author's childhood terrors. A shadowy figure who follows. Has it followed us here? How will she escape him? The Passenger was staged as a part of the first Terrifying Women showcase at the Golden Goose Theatre, London, in October 2021.","brand":"National Theatre Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55473324196216,"sku":"9781350424326","price":20.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0257\/9562\/5032\/files\/9781350424326.jpg?v=1772034795","url":"https:\/\/shop.nationaltheatre.org.uk\/zh-hans\/products\/morgan-lloyd-malcolm-plays-volume-one","provider":"National Theatre Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
