"No one looking at you would spot a thing out of place. You're complacent. You and the worm coexist. Even though it's eating you from the inside, you've got no idea."
A domestic abuse survivor examines the jagged pieces of her past to understand why she's being questioned by police.
She is in a mental facility and can't understand why she's there. She thinks she did something terrible... and she needs to remember it, before her actions have dangerous consequences.
A darkly compelling tale about coercive control, domestic abuse and how the mind finds a way to escape.
Emily Jupp writes for television and stage. Her first play 'Doing Well', about the mental health crisis affecting young people and its links to social media, took a satirical swipe at the cult of influencers. It was a finalist for the Liverpool Hope Prize in 2019. 'Wormholes' was longlisted for The Bruntwood Prize in 2022.
