About this ebook
A raucous family drama about the cost of living the life of our dreams.
Gordon and Serena have worked hard to get where they are. He’s on the verge of a massive promotion at an energy giant. She’s preparing for a move into the house of their dreams.
The family appear to be cooking on gas.
But behind their perfect front door, light bulbs are blowing, the drains keep blocking, and a phone inexplicably refuses to charge. Not to mention that daughter Rachel’s adored toy polar bear is nowhere to be found.
F*ck the Polar Bears premiered at the Bush Theatre, London, in September 2015.
