Monday 10 October 2022 marks the 20th anniversary of the International End the Death Penalty Day. We speak to theatre director Claire Parker and actress Edie Campbell about Apples in Winter, by Jennifer Fawcett - a one woman play premiering in London this week at Playground Theatre in West London. This award winning play gives a voice to the mother of a violent offender who is on death row and asks for his mother’s apple pie, as his request for his last meal.
The subjects this ambitious and poignant play covers are difficult and topical - forgiveness, trauma, unconditional love and how justice intersects women’s lives, at all ends of the spectrum.
