The Mayhem Company presentsThe Butterfly Club
by Sarah May
September 30th 2008 - October 4th 2008
Show starts: 7.30pm (2pm matinees)
Running time: 90mins
The Mayhem Company’s back at Southwark Playhouse
One winter’s morning, Caitlin walks out on her mum, her home and her life…and keeps on walking until she reaches an old dance hall in the woods where she hangs herself.
As friends and family gather at the funeral they realise that Caitlin won’t be the only one. Others will join the butterfly club…
When is enough, enough?
Biting tragedy and dark humour combine as a cast of cocaine-taking, marriage-flunking parents and lovesick, world-weary children try to work out what it means to choose to die and what it means to choose to live…
