Thirteen-year-old Alice wishes her life was completely different. She wakes up one morning to find that her life is different. In fact, it's so different that all she wants to do is get back to normality. But how does she do that?

A play about family, string theory and breakfast.

Each year the National Theatre commissions ten new plays for young people to perform as part of NT Connections, bringing together some of the UK's most exciting writers with the theatre-makers of tomorrow. Caithness Young Company is led by David Hunter Thompson and formed of young performers from across Caithness.
