The Monster in the Hall
Rev your engines for a high-octane, comic joyride. Meet Duck, a sassy 16-year-old whose mom died years ago in a motorcycle crash. Her father, nearly blind from MS, cares more for his vintage bike than he does for maintaining a stable home environment. It's up to Duck to hold her dysfunctional world together. The Guardian praises David Greig’s work as "raucous…delivering comedy, pathos, and romance."
