Sandcastles moves back and forth in time and memory to depict the tumultuous lifelong friendship of millennials Hannah and Beth. Beth is moving to New York. Hannah should be happy for her. When Beth goes missing Hannah can't reconcile how she reacted with the fact that Beth might be gone. Sandcastles is an exploration of grief, millennial angst, friendship and growing up.

'Steve McMahon’s script is funny and warm, and perfectly replicates friendly banter. Beth and Hannah are performed with depth and an easy finesse – surely these two really are friends and we’re merely eavesdropping on their reminiscences? Really, first-class. I was moved to tears, others too' ★★★★★ Three Weeks
Poignant, heartbreaking, and beautifully nuanced, this performance will be one that I will think about for a long time to come. ★★★★ EdFringeReview
