Faye’s afraid.

She’s not sleeping, she doesn’t trust ducks and all she’s had to eat this week is a box of dry Rice Krispies.

A doctor recommends a form of exposure therapy, so Faye enlists the help of her brother, Naoise. But Naoise has a devastating secret that’s about to explode.

A darkly funny new play, directed by Oisín Kearney, offering a theatrical exploration into the human brain via the genitals.
