Madolescents
Meet Rowena Vincent: trainee mortician, aspiring beautician, serial shoplifter and Warrior Princess. Holed up with her mum in a Newcastle suburb and living on a steady diet of Baileys and chips, Rowena fantasises about her absent dad and plans her funeral music. But when she embarks on an energetic campaign to eliminate her mothers new boyfriend, Bernard Filthy Luker, Rowena starts to lose her slippery grip on reality and is packed of to a teenage therapy group. Meet The MadolescentsÂ… Fresh, bittersweet and anarchic, The Madolescents is a gloriously subversive black comedy.
