Film, TV and stage icon Nadine Garner (The Lifespan of a Fact) returns to our stage alongside Max McKenna (Muriel’s Wedding the Musical) in Kendall Feaver’s remarkable and multi-award-winning play.

Anna has been on a cocktail of drugs since childhood and is desperate to discover where medication ends and she begins. Anna’s certain she’s capable of more than those around her believe – whether therapist, mother or boyfriend. But is her burgeoning genius worth more than the ties that have kept her afloat?

Brimming with unforgettable moments that catch the breath and stir the soul, The Almighty Sometimes parachutes us into the life of a family determined to weather whatever challenges are thrown their way.
This is a rare work guaranteed to ignite conversations and invite reflection, tapping into the universal tension between parental care and a child’s desire for self-determination. A complex and multi-faceted gem, its brilliance will take on a different shine from wherever you sit in the conversation.
