Torben Betts’s new play Monogomy, starring Olivier-Award-Winning actress Janie Dee, is set for a short tour ahead of its London run.
Playing at Festival Theatre in Malvern from 2-5 May 2018, Yvonne Arnaud in Guildford from 8-12 May and York Theatre Royal from 22-26 May before a limited 5-week run at Park Theatre in London from 6 June to 7 July.
Produced by The Original Theatre Company and Ghost Light Theatre Production, Monogomy is about Caroline Mortimer (Janie Dee), the nation’s favourite TV cook who has it all: a sparkling career, a big house in Highgate, a loving husband, smart kids and the best kitchen money can buy. But beneath the immaculate furnishings and studio lighting and away from the glare of the ever-present cameras, Caroline must face the looming collision of living a private life in the public eye. What happens when the cameras turn off and the truth comes out?
Torben Betts says: “I hope I have come up with a play which will make people laugh as much as it might prompt them to ask themselves some uncomfortable questions about the way we are living our lives right now.”
