Son of a Bitch

Winner: Fringe First Award 2024

’I loved being a Mum. Until he started to get a personality’

Son of a Bitch is a brutally honest and darkly funny monologue about a woman who is caught on camera calling her 4 year old son a c*nt during an air-rage incident.

When the video goes viral, Marnie’s life violently unravels. Now the whole world knows her darkest secret, but what happened before someone pressed record and captured the worst 10 seconds of her life?

The debut play from Award Winning Comedian Anna Morris is a bold and playful one woman piece about maternal ambivalence. Winner of a Fringe First Award after it premiered at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2024, this edition was published to coincide with the production’s transfer to London’s Southwark Playhouse in February 2025.
