by Tiggy Bayley (Author)
Daisy Wright is in her early twenties, broke, furious and freshly bereaved. Taking a stopgap job as a one-to-one support assistant in an inner-city primary school, she's assigned to Paddy Connors: a sharp, chaotic Irish Traveller boy with a talent for disruption and a grief he can't name. As Daisy ricochets between the staffroom, the toilets and her sofa, an unlikely friendship begins to crack open her numbness.
Brutally funny and quietly devastating, Tiggy Bayley's play holds a mirror to poverty, education and loss--and asks what it means to choose love anyway.
"Squidge is a sensitive and challenging story about loss and love. Squidge shows there are no saviours who hold all the answers but that sometimes, when we find a magical connection, we can save ourselves. Tiggy Bayley is an emerging talent to watch closely."
