STRAWBERRY
A one-act stage play written by Kerry Drumm
Status: Available for licensing and further production
About the play
Strawberry is a one-act stage play centred on a teenage girl navigating family, identity, and the emotional fallout of long-held secrets. Set within an intimate domestic world, the play explores how silence, loyalty, and love shape relationships — particularly between women across generations.
Character-driven and restrained, Strawberry focuses on the moments where private thought threatens to surface, and where small shifts carry lasting consequence.
Why this story
Strawberry came from an interest in the interior lives of women and girls under quiet pressure — the emotional labour, compromises, and resilience that are rarely spoken aloud.
I wanted to write something small and contained that still carried weight, allowing character and subtext to do the work. The play sits alongside my wider interest in family, working-class experience, and the complexities of care, responsibility, and belonging.
Current status
Strawberry is a one-act stage play that has been professionally developed and is available for further production and licensing.
The play is suited to studio and small-scale spaces, with a minimal cast and flexible staging. While the script includes contemporary elements such as projected text messages, it can also be staged simply, depending on the needs of the production.

Strawberry was developed through a series of workshops and received professional feedback as part of its development process.
