another play from the 70s
no doubt a play for today ....is it available anywhere ?
a mother on a high rise estate does a bad job of looking after her many offspring
one of the complaints made against her is one child turned up for school smelling of urine
at the very end through loads of trials and tribulations she gives the kids and herself overdoses mixed up in a bedtime drink to make sure they all dont wake up again![]()
