A bold, bitingly funny and deeply human play, The Soon Life, from writer and performer Phoebe McIntosh comes to London.
A heavily pregnant, thirty-something woman is in labour. Too scared to go to the hospital in lockdown London, she’s decided to have the ‘perfect’ home birth with nothing but a birthing ball and a boxset to get her through it.
Matinees at 3pm on Saturdays and Tuesdays (5 matinees scheduled, Tuesdays are relaxed performances ideal for parents and babies)
Plans are derailed when her ex turns up and refuses to leave.
As her labour progresses and with the midwife unreachable, the pair are forced to confront the remnants of their relationship and their breakup before everything changes forever with the arrival of their child.
The Soon Life delivers a funny, gripping, fly-on-the-wall portrait of a woman on the cusp of change.
Winner of the ‘Highly Commended’ Prize at the Tony Craze Awards 2020.
