THE BALD PRIMA DONNA

By Eugene Ionesco.

A psychological thriller and drama, inspired by the Fremantle Lunatic Asylum (now the Fremantle Art Centre). The third most common reason that women were sent to the asylum was Puerperal Insanity, now known as, Postpartum Depression.

Lily is a new mum struggling with postpartum depression after the birth of her first child. In search of community and answers to her depression, which she refuses to talk about, she takes up art classes at a local community art centre. She soon discovers that the centre was previously a lunatic asylum for women in the early 1900s, the rooms previously being cells. After uncovering the story of Poppy Florence Grey, a previous patient at the asylum, Lily starts to feel like someone, or something is watching her…and the line begins to blur between what is real and what isn’t.
