'A first-class set design by Lucy Hall allows what would be an over-the-table conversation between three people to remain active and dynamic.' - The Stage
A Visit is about crime, justice and childcare and who takes care of the kids when a mum gets sent to prison.
​
Fifteen year old Angharad is visiting her mum Ffion in a prison far away from their home in Aberdare. She’s been taken there by her Aunty Carys, who has been doing her best to look after her, but it’s not easy taking care of a teenager and Aunty Carys never planned on being a mum.
​
So who is going to look after Angharad?
​
In association with Clean Break, the show was by real life stories of women and young people with lived-experience of imprisonment and/or maternal imprisonment.
