Two women from completely different sides of the world are bonded together through the unlikeliest of circumstances. Coming from an unorthodox religious group in Australia, Millie is told the only way to feel closer to God is to donate one of her kidneys- the ultimate sacrifice. In London, Becky is experiencing kidney failure and doesn’t have long left. Set on the brink of the millennium, one must sacrifice themselves for the other. Is it still selfless to donate an organ if your reasons for doing so are selfish? Inspired by true stories, ‘KIDNEY4U’ is dark comedy examining our instincts as human beings to forge connections stay alive.  

The piece was given a weeks R&D at Birmingham Hippodrome and selected as part of BEAM 2025. Watch this space!
