About Milk and Mallet
I Dreamt You Differently is a new writing theatre show by Milk and Mallet, performed at theatre. Billy Mason — a working class lad turned tycoon of the bar snack industry — visits his soon-to-be pop star daughter Mariella at a strange hotel where she is dreaming up her debut album. Hopes of celebration and champagne collide with industry collapse, failing health and the looming presence of a god-like label executive who threatens to force them apart. Running for 60 minutes, the show blends songs, suspicion and surreal turns in an exploration of ambition and familial love.
Why see this show?
A father-daughter story set inside the music industry, told with surreal invention and original songs. Milk and Mallet bring warmth and strangeness to questions about what we sacrifice in pursuit of ambition.
