Beside the Sea is a one-woman play about a mother who is driven to the extremes of mental and physical despair, performed by Lisa Dwan.

Taking on the theme of infanticide with tenderness and bravery, this is a story of irrational fear, where love crosses the border into violence.

Adapated from Beside the Sea by Veronique Olmi, translated into English by Adriana Hunter.

"For years, no British publisher would touch Veronique Olmi's novel about a woman who kills her children. But now it is taking on a life of its own. " The Guardian
