Dima’s throwing himself a going away party.

Tomorrow he joins the army. No choice really - he’s 19, dirt poor, his mum’s dead and his dad’s a drunk. The metal grave markers he’s been stealing to scratch out a living are down to the last few. This haul will convert into just enough cash for one final big night.

From new wave Russian playwright Vassily Sigarev (Evening Standard award-winner for Most Promising Playwright, 2002), Ladybird is a savage, hilarious and haunting dissection of the futile dreams and rage of those living on the urban fringes, yearning for escape.
