But in the People's Republic of Koka Kola – a world of dwindling resources, corruption and corporate giants – what happens to Hope?
A surreal and frenetic quest through a hyper-capitalist country, Tom Fowler's play Hope has a Happy Meal premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in June 2023, directed by Lucy Morrison, in a co-production with SISTER.
REVIEWS:
"A theatrical spectacle... Fowler's writing zips off the page."
WhatsOnStage
"A poignant, offbeat satire that unfolds with the daft, disjointed logic of a dream, full of sudden, unlikely plot twists and surreal asides."
The Stage
"Tom Fowler is a writer with a knack for comedy... Hope Has a Happy Meal is part Thelma and Louise, part reverse-Wizard of Oz, balancing wit and nightmares."
The Guardian
"A surreal pleasure... Fowler's writing has an instantly appealing brightness and energy... a humorously lurid vision, with powerfully articulated emotions."
Arts Desk
"A surreal, engrossing satire on a world where big brands own everything... Fowler's playfully dark humour hits the spot."
Time Out
"Funny, exciting and well-written."
Reviews Hub
"Sparks with peppery wit, with an unapologetically sui generis sense of surreal black humour and plenty of humanity."
