soft animals (NHB Modern Plays)

Sarah gets spat at in the street. Frankie doesn't go to her lectures. In the aftermath of the tragic accident that brought them together, neither expects to find solace in the other's company.

Between hate mail and novelty teddy bears, the two women become something like friends. They want to punish themselves. They might just save each other.

A tender and unflinching story about motherhood, self destruction and the way women help each other heal.

Holly Robinson's debut play soft animals premiered at Soho Theatre in February 2019.
