Why See Alma Mater?
A Striking New Play
What does it mean to effectively instigate change in life? All of this and more is explored in Polly Findlay's spectacular new production Alma Mater at London's Almeida Theatre. With a star-studded cast including House of Dragon's Phoebe Campbell, Alma Mater presents an eye-opening perspective on the widening gap between generations of activists.
About Alma Mater
At first, the culture appears innocent, with casual banter and games among friends, but as time goes on, it spirals into violence. Jo Mulligan, the inaugural female master of a prestigious college, is on a mission to foster inclusivity and dismantle archaic practices. However, a disturbing incident on campus is about to get in her way, leading to a clash with Nikki, a student who is seeking justice. As tensions escalate and both sides dig in, the college becomes divided...and only one question remains - will anyone emerge unscathed from the confrontation?
