Description
Pennyroyal is a heart-wrenching play about sisterhood and motherhood, enduring love, and regrets. When Daphne is diagnosed with Premature Ovarian Insufficiency at the age of nineteen, her sister Christine steps in to help, leading to a complex and twisted relationship.
The play explores the long road that Daphne takes on the IVF journey, and how it affects her bond with her sister. Inspired by Edith Wharton's novella The Old Maid, Pennyroyal is a poignant portrayal of the challenges faced by women in their relationships and personal lives.
