GUSH (2026)
dir. Becky Hope Palmer
My debut play, GUSH, was commissioned and produced by the Traverse Theatre in April 2026. The play is a one woman monodrama following expectant mother Ally and her attempts to resolve questions around her attraction to women before she gives birth.
The play starred Jessica Hardwick, as seen in Float (BBC) and Hijack (Apple TV), who won a Critics’ Award for Theatre in Scotland for the role.
‘a performance of remarkable emotional, psychological and physical versatility’ - The National
