JUMPY by April De Angelis
10 March - 2 April 2016
‘Well, that’s the thing, with children you can’t take them back and exchange them.’
Theatr Clwyd presents the regional premiere of the hit West End comedy Jumpy.
Hilary is 50 and life is passing her by. Her job is under threat, her marriage is sustained only by habit and worst of all, her 15-year-old daughter Tilly is breaking all the rules and driving her mother frantic.
Jumpy is a comedy of a mid-life crisis, teenage rebellion and mother-daughter relationship in meltdown.
April De Angelis is an acclaimed writer for the stage, radio and TV. In 2014/15 she was Writer in Residence at the National Theatre. Her plays include After Electra, Playhouse Creatures and The Life and Times of Fanny Hill.
Directed by Lisa Spirling whose recent work includes Pine and Deposit at Hampstead Theatre, and the comedies Donkeys’ Years and Here by Michael Frayn at The Rose
Theatre, Kingston.
