This play, based on Almodovar’s signature movie, follows Manuela as she heads for Barcelona in search of her son Esteban’s missing father. From camp theatrical melodrama to gritty realism, we meet a riotous gay transvestite prostitute, a young nun who explosively rejects her order, a starry diva and – at its heart – a mother struggling with truth and love.
