PARENTS – A COMEDY ABOUT TYPICAL PRIMARY SCHOOL PARENTS

It’s parent’s evening and the parents of the reception (First Grade) class are gathered in the corridor outside the classroom, waiting for their turn to see the teacher to find out how their child is doing. All the usual candidates are there. There’s the mother of the twin boys, who seems lovely but also has an ex in prison, there’s the average dad, who would like to spend more time with his son, but works late hours, and of course ‘Rebecca’s’ parents. Every class has a ‘Rebecca’ – the child who not only studies 6 instruments but who also takes lessons in a number of languages at the tender age of 5 (Which her Nanny carts her to). Now, these parents wouldn’t want to hear anything bad about their precious darling, now would they? Especially involving the class hamster. A comedy about typical primary school parents.

Parents was a finalist in the Blackshaw Showcase Writing Award, 2017.
