Desiree Din is the point five of the 2.5 kids in a nuclear family. Small, strange and the last in line for everything, Desiree retreats to her dollhouse in the red forest. The problem is that Desiree is forgetting her own family. Her brother and sister are in danger. A massive family duty rests on Desiree’s small, uncertain shoulders.
From the magical mind of young playwright Maxine Mellor comes a fairy story for a new generation. A play you can bring your parents to, but watch out, some parts are scary as.
