The Wasp
Description
Two words twenty years after doesn't quite feel enough though does it?
Heather and Carla haven't seen each other since school. Their lives have taken very different paths – Carla lives a hand-to-mouth existence while Heather has a high-flying career, husband and a beautiful home. And yet, here they are in a café having tea and making awkward conversation. That is until Heather presents Carla with a bag containing a significant amount of cash and an unexpected proposition…
A twisting two-hander, this electric thriller from Morgan Lloyd Malcolm (Emilia) asks how far beyond the playground we carry our childhood experiences – and to what lengths some people are willing to go in order to come to terms with them.
The Wasp was first staged at Hampstead Downstairs, Hampstead Theatre, London, in January 2015, transferring to the Trafalgar Studios in the West End in December 2015. This edition was published to coincide with the revival at Southwark Playhouse in May 2026, as presented by Greenwich Theatre Productions in association with CultureClash Theatre.
