“Making the decision to have a child – it is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body” – American author, Elizabeth Stone …

Forever? Really?

Actress and writer Elli Mackenzie thinks so and in this moving and yet hilarious work of autobiographical theatre Elli, explores the highs and lows, the frustrations, the joy, the bizarre and downright unbelievable aspects of raising children whilst running a family business *.

Join Elli, her husband Andy, an orangutan and a giant woodlouse as Oddsocks presents an “amazing” and “refreshingly honest piece of theatre.”

A must for mothers or anyone who has a mother.

*You don’t have to join Elli forever; the show lasts one hour and fifteen minutes.”
