Pooja Ghai directs Tanika Gupta’s latest play about a British Indian family coming to terms with the matriarch’s gradual decline and loss of faculties due to mental illness. Central to the beautiful and nuanced production, is a towering performance by Meera Syal as Queenie, a renowned and combative Michelin-star rated chef who is the epitome of the Indian life force.

However, it is precisely these roles which have ensured a good turn-out here at the has-seen-better-days-and-could-do-with-a-boost-to-funding Greenwich Theatre.
