Mosquitos, by Lucy Kirkwood

It might be the biggest day in your career, but there’s no escaping from family.

Alice is a phycisist working at CERN. On the very morning, in 2008,  that the Large Hydron Collider is to be turned on, her bereaved, drinking, smoking sister and somewhat demented mother  arrive in Geneva from the UK. Meanwhile, her teenage son, Luke, hates his school and is getting into all kinds of trouble, trying to impress another alienated teen, Nathalie.

This searing contemporary comedy examines our love-hate relationships with technology and with each other, and, finally,  the enduring value of unconditional love.

5 female roles, 3 male.
