Performed in the Short and Sweet Singapore 2008 Festival, Disturbing Mavis won the People's Choice Award in the Week 1 Top 30 section. Set in a nursing home, this is a practical look at the subject of growing old and the not-so-attractive consequences. Mavis is a lonely soul who finds solidarity in comforting her husband, Alfred. She fills the boredom of her days by reading and engaging in one-sided arguments with an inert Alfred. When the ambulance officers arrive to take Alfred away, we discover the reason for Alfreds inertia and witness Maviss frustration and helplessness.
