Monster is a dark psychological play with moments of magical realism. Once drawn in, the audience will be prompted to consider the role of trauma in substance misuse in homelessness. They will be moved to question the ethics of dehumanising victims of this terrible cycle by accepting they are part of a broken social care system. Monster explores whether we can truly escape the demons of a broken past and what happens to traumatised people in a society where their behaviour is criminalised.
