A funny, candid and poignant solo show about the unique and crazy relationship between Milanka and her flamboyant Serbian mother, Lela. A touching story of a female double-act who hustled together through life’s challenges. Two women who’d discuss everything from perfecting their exercise routine, to libertine lovers to scissoring. But why do Mum and Milanka not talk anymore? World premiere and writing debut by/starring Milanka Brooks (Black Mirror: USS Callister, Benidorm, The Windsors). Directed by Ben Cavey (Producer of Bad Education, Jack Whitehall: Travels With My Father, Grandma's House, Psychobitches).
