I'm falling through a world which makes no sense

An ambitious Michelin-Star chef, Queenie is used to having the last word.

But when her children notice gaps in her memory and her grip on reality loosening, they are faced with an impossible choice. As Raj, Gopal and Kamala battle to reconcile their life-long duty to their mother, the ramifications of their decision take on a heartbreaking permanence.

A vivid and heart-breaking family drama, A Tupperware Of Ashes is about life, immigration and the Indian spiritual cycle of death and rebirth. This edition is published to coincide with the world premiere at the National Theatre, London in September 2024.

One of the most beautiful plays I've read. So powerful, full of love, loss and longing. I highly recommend!

watched the play in the national theatre in london today, and then relived the experience through reading this script straight after. such a poignant, emotionally resonant and lightly humorous play - one of my favourites ever!
