Be sure to check out 'Maisie Says She Loves Me', Vault Festival, 1-5 March 2017 by former featured Script This writer Jimmy Osborne!

Maisie Says She Loves Me
By Jimmy Osborne
Directed and performed by David Aula

After their critically acclaimed adaption of Ian McEwan’s The Cement Garden, Jimmy Osborne and David Aula return to VAULT Festival with a new play that explores how one man tries to be strong. We all want to love and be loved, but what if you just can’t let the feelings out? Big boys don’t cry. What if you’re worried about what else might be released? Do you still take your chance?

Maisie Says She Loves Me was developed and supported by the Lincoln Performing Arts Centre.

Praise for The Cement Garden:
“Leaves you effectively shaken.” ★★★★ Metro
“Adventurous and youthfully energetic” ★★★★ The Times
“Gloriously inventive, playful and full of heart” ★★★★ Fourthwall Magazine
“Experimental and adventurous.” ★★★★ The Public Reviews
“As sharp as can be… rancid, beguiling and playful.” ★★★★ The Sunday Times
