"I threw all the knives away yesterday. Just in case the two of them get any ideas. Not that I think they'd really attack me, not normally, but maybe when they're angry, maybe the next time John gets mad because I say something irrational... Maybe then. It's possible."
Australia, 1998. Eileen is surrounded by enemies: the computer players who beat her at Hearts; the naughty woman who swears in her head; and the husband and daughter who just might kill her in her sleep. Part two of Minola Theatre's BEGOTTEN.
Stage Whispers calls BEGOTTEN “a fascinating tapestry” with “superb sound design” and “visual images that sing”. Audiences praise it as “emotional”, “raw”, “powerful”, “spellbinding” and “heart touching”.
