Kate, thirty years into her marriage, has a seemingly idyllic metropolitan, North London life. Phoebe, a young screenwriter, is the creator of the year’s hit TV show, Cheating.
When Kate’s world takes a darker turn, she thinks she sees details and intimacies in the show that only she and her husband Jack could possibly have known. But who has betrayed who? Who gets to tell whose story?
A black comedy of resentment and entitlement, Look What You Made Me Do is the story of two very different women from two very different generations, heading toward a battle only one of them can win.
UEA Drama Studio | 6.30pm
‘A pacy tale of treachery, deceit and deranged grief within a comedy about the bitter resentment and generational rivalry.’
Independent
‘The darkest and most satisfying novel you’ll read this year . . . brilliant and dangerous.’
