The Kitchen Sink by Tom Wells, directedby Veryan Jennings

Arundel Festival Monday 18th - Saturday 23rd August, 7.30pm

Set in Yorkshire, “The Kitchen Sink” is a touching, witty outlook on a family going through all the problems life throws at us.

Amid the dreams, the dramas and the dirty dishes, something’s got to give.

Will Martin lose all the customers on his milk round to Tesco’s?
Will Billy get into art college?
Will Sophie ever become a Ju-Jitsu instructor?
Will Pete ever mend the sink?
Will mum manage to keep it all together?

Martin
He’s a hardworking milkman in his late forties. Your typical ‘man’s man’. However, he is currently losing customers from his milk round and battling his strained relationship with his gay son.

Kath
She’s everything to everyone. She balances being a lollipop lady, dinner lady, housewife and mother whilst still finding time to experiment with her cooking. Despite doing all this, Kath finds herself overworked and underappreciated by those around her.

Sophie
A strong woman in her early twenties who ‘doesn’t suffer fools’. She loves Ju-Jitsu and hopes to one day be an instructor.

Billy
Billy is in his late teens, hoping to get into art college, and loves Dolly Parton. He struggles with his relationship with his father.

Pete
A calm, warm and cheerful man in his mid-twenties with a hidden sadness. He looks after his pot-smoking nan and is often characterised as Sophie’s “sort of boyfriend”.
