A funny, razor-sharp portrait of modern family life that unpeels the layers of stories and fictions we tell each other and our kids.

In a chaotic family home, Jane and Kev don’t have secrets. They don’t have room for them – their children take up all the space. But when Kev comes home from a business trip with something to confess, and their blissfully free-of-family weekend guests, the wisecracking Phil and glamorous Lorna, arrive unexpectedly, the truth about ‘Home Sweet Home’ is hilariously and tragically revealed.

With crackling, witty dialogue and the kind of home truths only children reveal, Mammals speaks volumes to anyone who’s in, has been in, or will ever be in a family.

“Clever, funny and painful in all the right ways” – Independent

“A gem. The dialogue gurgles, sparkles, fizzes with compassion, recognition and wit. Glorious. Not to be missed” – What’s On

A New Zealand premiere.
