Cannibal

When you survive the unsurvivable, who do you become? Bridget Walker has written a play about the abduction of her son and it's a smash hit. Critics are raving, but those closest to her are sent reeling. ‘Cannibal’ explores grief, the cost of sharing your story, and what it means to be indebted to someone you love.
