It’s 1976. Twenty-one year-old Sarah moves to New York City to be a writer. She has gone through a string of dead-end jobs when her father visits. He ignores her need for financial support and unconditional love as their relationship enters turbulent waters.

Directing Marylou’s Cold Water Flat was a joy. The relationship between the father and daughter was a rich landscape to explore in rehearsal. Audiences were rapt in the subtle build as the characters grappled with their past history and present circumstance. A satisfying journey for all.

— Kim Sharp, Director of Cold Water

Marylou’s writing contains so many layers and digs deep beyond the surface. I wanted the scene to continue.

— Mia Ellis, Actor
