Messy Eaters
by Aisling Lally
Blood, sweat, and chia seeds. A quirky, rhyming response to the silly sides of food: from Waitrose Turkeys, to diet culture. Everyone’s making a mess.
Newly weds Charles and Mabel spend Christmas with the in-laws, God, and a deadly secret. Shirley and Kevin reach boiling point, whilst stressed student Emma gains a keen tea guest who forgets his table manners. Meanwhile, Ryan just doesn’t understand how girlfriend Abby likes her eggs in the morning.
With five interlinking short plays on the menu, Messy Eaters is jam packed with current, juicy chaos.
