The Bicycle & the Butcher’s Daughter

The Bicycle & the Butcher’s Daughter
By Helen Moulder & Sue Rider
Presented by Willow Productions
Directed by Sue Rider
Starring Helen Moulder
A family, food and five surprising characters!
Olivia Paterson has taken over as CEO of the family meat exporting company. Her daughter is a vegan. Her sister wants to open an art gallery. Her father wants things to stay as they are.

Olivia wants to feed the world, but when the media get hold of a fake story, what is more important – her plans for the company’s survival or her relationship with her family? As Olivia strives to keep her balance, 11-year-old Grace might just provide an answer.

A new solo comedy-drama featuring a tour de force performance from actor Helen Moulder.

With music by Beethoven recorded by Richard Mapp (piano) and Juliet Ayre (violin).
