Production Photography by Roger Kenny
My Best Friend is a provocative play that tells the story of three women with a shared yet secretive past. Humorous as it is sinister, it explores the fragile relationship between three old school friends, Bee, Emma and Chris. Set in a rustic French farmhouse, the three friends are set on a collision course which culminates in an unexpected and frenzied climax.

With overtures of paranoia, mistrust, excess and greed it examines the complexities of three very different personalities. Colored by elements of chronic individualism, the play questions the evolution and life of memories and the extent to which one can truly and accurately rely on one’s own memory.

ABOUT THE COMPANY
My Best Friend is MindsEyes first production as an ensemble. The company was set up by Jill Mongey and Caroline O’Boyle in 2009.
MindsEye came about from a desire to produce exciting, vibrant and compelling contemporary theatre. We aim to promote emerging theatrical talent and will aspire to create a collaborative and dynamic platform dedicated to showing theatre as a relevant, modern craft.
