Play :: Melody s got secrets. Dirty, dark, sick-to-the-bottom-of-your-stomach secrets that she s hidden away from for years. The tattoos up her arms tell part of the story, but the truth is a lot more complicated. John, the boyfriend, thinks he knows Melody but he doesn t know the half of it. To him, it s just a question of presentation. Olive, Melody s irascible mother-in-law, thinks she knows all about it. She isn t afraid to put her oar in but she s got her version of events to hide. Ashley turns up at Melody s door on a mission to reveal everything. Only she doesn t know the full picture. The pressure that s been building up for years is about to boil over... Douglas Maxwell s Melody is a bitingly funny drama of a modern family s secrets and lies, reunion and revenge.
