It’s the 10-year high school reunion. A time to discuss forgotten dreams, reunite with lost friends, and maybe lose your shit when you reconnect with one. Drenched in edgy dark humour, this storytelling styled production sheds light on the intricate facets of the mother-daughter relationship, the challenges of living abroad, sporadic reunions, shattered dreams, and the void that forms when there have been so many things left unsaid.

After situating her less-than-perfect life in London, the character returns to her home country for a high school reunion, where we follow a woman navigating the moment when her whole life unravels. Fresh from a breakup, stuck in a questionable job and having sex with randomers, she leaves all this for a brief moment, only to reunite with her mother. Things should have been better, but life seems to have encountered a glitch.

Writing this play, Edith Alibec aimed to delve into the subject of returning home with a new contemporary and personal perspective. She comments, I’ve been obsessed for a while about that point in your life when all those dreams that you had when you were young, all that hope and all that energy seems to vanished into thin air. That transition from young adulthood into full on adulthood. Friendships were not what they were before, some are lost, some are different. You either arrived at a good, stable point in your life, personally and professionally, or you feel really really left behind.

       

Glitch was originally presented as Tea and Milk, which was a recipient of Phoebe Waller Bridge’s Keep It Fringe fund; it is an updated and re-worked production.
