Summary

Tiffany's mum got hit by a Birdseye truck on the M25. There's family to call and a coffin to order, but first she has to talk to her dad – and for some reason that's the toughest thing on her to-do list.
On the doorstep, an oozing paper bag holds a dying wish that will either bring father and daughter together, or drive them further apart.
In her visceral play about family, grief and red meat, Sarah Kosar (Spaghetti Ocean, Live Lunch, Royal Court, London) asks how far we'd go to reconnect with the ones we love most.
