- Book Synopsis
- 'I don't visit the past. The past visits me.' The sharp-tongued Miss Myrtle is trying to manage her unkempt garden in a rapidly changing neighbourhood. Her grandson Rudy and his 'close friend' Jason need a place to stay, and local drunk Eddie keeps relieving himself against her garden wall. When Rudy starts delving into the past, Myrtle resists - all she wants is some peace and quiet. But as her brain begins to play up, far more complicated questions about grief, love and understanding demand her attention, and she's running out of time. Miss Myrtle's Garden is a wonderfully warm and witty exploration of how acknowledging the past helps us live life in the present. It was written by Danny James King and first performed at the Bush Theatre, London, in 2025, directed by Taio Lawson.
