DUST
A woman. A suicide. A choice. A fly on the wall. A funeral. A Bakewell tart. A life. A lie. A truth. An ending. Of sorts.
Alice thinks that life isn’t worth living. So she kills herself. Sort of. She is stuck, a fly on the wall. Forced to watch the aftermath of her suicide and its ripple effect on her family and friends, Alice quickly learns that death changes people. And that death is not the change she hoped for.
A FIRST WORLD PROBLEM
It’s the final term in Britain’s most elite school for girls. Three young women hold envelopes that will determine the rest of their lives. One of these girls is not the sort of young lady their school is supposed to produce. There is porn on her laptop and pills in her book bag, and she is about to make a very big mistake…
Savagely funny and excruciatingly honest, Milly Thomas’ debut play A First World Problem gives a rare insight into the cruelty of adolescence.

    choice. I never want you to think I don’t want you around or I’m in cahoots with your Mum. I do need you. I promise. But you don’t need me right now. You need your Mum.

    Are you…? Are you asking me to – ?
    ELLIE: No. No… I just think it… It would be for the best. For now. And I don’t want you to ever think you’re unwelcome or unwanted, it’s just… Al, I’m so sorry –
    ELLIE starts to cry.
    It’s just I can’t afford to keep paying the rent for both of us. It’s been two years now and I don’t mind. Honestly I – I can’t make you work and I wouldn’t want you to, you’re not well. And I… I’m just so scared every day when I go to work of what you might do and Al, if that happened, if that ever happened Al, I’d never ever forgive myself. I wouldn’t. And oh god, I don’t wanna guilt trip you or anything, I really don’t. I just – I love you. So much. And I can’t not work. And I don’t ever want you to feel like I’m betraying you or anything because I’m not. It’s hard. It’s a hard conversation to – But your mum rang me. And we agreed. You won’t get help or go back to inpatients after what happened… That’s fine. That’s completely your choice. And I respect that choice. I never want you to think I don’t want you around or I’m in cahoots with your Mum. I do need you. I promise. But you don’t need me right now. You need your Mum.
