Armslength is a charming and witty insight into art, fame and love.

Which makes more sense: art or real life? And who has the power: the creator or their subject?
After a long, self-imposed exile, talented photographer Elsie reunites with her sister Ruth, to find Ruth has given up her promising career as a dancer to support her lover in his dream of becoming an artist. The sisters share secrets about their past, but it’s the secrets others hold from them that threaten to blow their worlds apart.

A stunning debut from playwright Branwen Millar.
