AFTERCARE

A new play by Leaf Wang. Eliot Li. Twenty-one, annoyingly clever. She has a beautiful girlfriend with a beautiful job, and a mum who is brilliant at everything except men. She came to England at fourteen. She’d much rather speak English than Mandarin. She lives above the family nail salon. She also has a B-side. A big one. Chloe Li. Twenty-nine. Works in a bank. At Bank. Risk analysis. Expensive taste. Cut ties with her East Asian family a long time ago. Cries a lot at night. She thinks she knows exactly how to hedge a bet. She’s just made a bad one. Yanan Li. Forty-one. Built a nail salon in London with her own two hands. Her daughter is sweet, obedient and funny. Yanan is seeing her white ex-husband again, and hiding it from her daughter, in vain. Tonight, she meets her daughter’s B-side. At worst, she thought her daughter was gay. It’s much, much worse.
