Home, I’m Darling is a comedy about sex, cake and the pursuit of the perfect 1950s housewife. Judy has Johnny’s slippers waiting when he arrives home from work, the kitchen is spotless and the rooms are aired… yet this is not the 1950s, but a 21st-century arrangement the two of them have chosen to create.
With vintage clothes, carefully chosen furniture and even a faulty 1950s fridge, Judy and Johnny are determined to live the dream, complete with fixed roles and a perfectly ordered life. But as outside pressures begin to creep in and other people become part of the picture, the cracks start to show.
Sharp, stylish and wickedly funny, Home, I’m Darling is a clever, unsettling and highly entertaining play about performance, partnership and the fantasies we build around modern life.
