There's some Alphabites in the freezer. Pop
the oven on. You can eat your own words.

When four siblings reunite at their recently deceased mother's home with the intention of divvying up her possessions, a long-buried family secret explodes out into the
open - with devastating consequences for their morally-upstanding family identity and individual relationships.

True to form, Liv thinks she can bulldoze them all to safety, on her own terms. People-pleaser, Rob, just wants everyone to get along. But Michelle's had enough of doing as she's told. And with prodigal son, Jonny, hellbent on getting what he wants, they all look set to lose everything - their dignity included.

Relics is a darkly comic family drama which explores the legacies we inherit, the choices we make, and the heart-breaking compromise of growing up.

This edition was published to coincide with production at Lyric Hammersmith Theatre in June 2026.
