Marnie, a middle-aged, single, depressed and lonely woman, is trying out a self-help programme in an attempt to "move ahead" in her life. The audience is invited into her kitchen, as voyeurs to Marnie’s morning rituals. But her breakfast preparations begin to take a bizarre turn, as the self-help guru slowly becomes increasingly personal: asking her to perform strange tasks and to engage with difficult memories from her past. When she is interrupted by an unexpected visitor, the audience is left to ask whether magic has entered the room, or if they are being subjected to a mind that has crossed over from reality into delusion. What must Marnie do to truly transform her life?
Conceived and created by the company; written by Evalyn Parry and Anna Chatterton; directed by Brendan Healy; set design by Julie Fox; featuring Anna Chatterton, Karin Randoja and Evalyn Parry.
