Published in volume Ella Hickson Plays: One
In a Westminster dressing room, Prime Minister Dave prepares for his first ever bout of Prime Minister's Questions.
Ella Hickson's short play PMQ, created with Gwendolen Chatfield, was first presented as part of Coalition, a season of work at Theatre503, London, in November 2010.
REVIEWS:
"One piece [in Theatre503's Coalition season] stands out: Ella Hickson and Gwendolen Chatfield's cunning drama has David Cameron preparing for his first Prime Minister's Questions, spurred on by his own sense of destiny and haunted by an undermining little voice in his head. It's a clever piece from a writer who has already proved herself as a chronicler of twentysomething experience, but who now seems ready, unlike her fictional PM, to spread her wings."
