Georgia, in the sultry summer of 1945. Lonely tomboy Frankie shares her crazy dreams with the family maid. Desperate to leave her childhood world behind, she longs to run away with her brother and his new wife and become 'a member’ of their wedding.

'If you crossed a great Chekhov short story with a top Tennessee Williams play, you'd get some measure of the warm brilliance of Carson McCullers' play. It's reclaimed now in a rare, welcome and perfectly pitched production.' The Independent

'McCullers was writing in the very early years of the Civil Rights movement. It's Berenice's very existence - fierce, loving, self-denying - that makes you feel as well as see the need for great change. A wonderful performance.'
The Times
