Overview

'She scrubs desperately. Fervently. Furiously. The filth is in the walls and she can feel it in her bones and under her skin.' As the stench in their building intensifies and infestations spread, a lonely group of tenants starts to ask questions. But when the housing association barely lifts a finger in support and pest control 'don't deal with maggots', the neighbours are left to grapple with their suspicions and fears alone – blurring the boundaries of their usually private lives in the process. An exploration of the importance of human connection, Maggots questions what it really takes to build community. Written by Tony Craze Award winner Farah Najib and directed by Jess Barton, it is premiered at The Bush Theatre, London, in 2026.
