That’s Why Mums Go to Switzerland

Bonnie Oddie with True Story London

Oddie’s award-winning debut piece tells the story generations of pissed-off women living under one roof, ending with a family trip to Switzerland. This solo shows explores dependency, death, love, smoking weed, becoming ‘a bad mother and bad daughter at the same time’… and the dog, who knew everything. Based on a true story.

‘A beautiful, unexpected, compassionate, honest and deeply moving piece of work. Oddie flips from hilarious to devastating and back again in a heartbeat. Truly life – and death – affirming’
