Synopsis

Forty-something Hildy is in crisis. Her father is in a home. Her mother has moved in and shows no sign of leaving. Her son is a recovering drug addict, on methadone and hugely overweight. And her ex-husband persuades her to have sex one more time - only for them to be interrupted in flagrante by his new lover - Despite its title, Dreams of Violence is a laugh-out-loud urban comedy, sharp, funny and satirical - in the same vein as Feehily's two previous plays, Duck and O Go My Ma .

Media Reviews
Feehily's play is savvy, smart and witty, and yet somewhere beneath the cynicism about love, sex and the whole damn thing there's a wishfulness: if only men, women and children could stay together and be happy The Times on O Go My Man
