Eva O’Connor’s Mustard to be staged at Arcola Theatre

Eva O’Connor’s Mustard will run at Arcola Theatre this summer.

Written and performed by O’Connor, the production from Fishamble: The New Play Company in association with Sunday’s Child will bring run from 17 May – 3 June, with previews from 16 May.

Playwright Eva O’Connor said: I’m thrilled that we’re bringing Mustard to the Arcola. This play is close to my heart and a real joy to perform. I’m delighted that London audiences will get to see it in such a brilliant venue.”

When E meets the man of her dreams, a professional cyclist, love hits her in the pubic bone like a train. But when it ends, she plummets into a black hole of heartbreak at the speed of a doped up team on the Tour de France.

Mustard is a one-woman show about heartbreak, madness and how condiments are the ultimate coping mechanism.

The production is directed by Hildegard Ryan with lighting design by Marianne Nightingal and re – lit by Suzie Cummins.
