Winner of a Scotsman Fringe First Award 2013. Shortlisted for the
Amnesty International Freedom of Expression Award 2013 at the
Edinburgh Fringe Festival, 2013. Seamlessly blending the personal
and the political, Grounded tells the story of a hot-rod F16
fighter pilot whose unexpected pregnancy ends her career in the
sky. Repurposed to flying remote-controlled drones in the Middle
East from an air-conditioned trailer near Vegas, the Pilot
struggles through surreal twelve-hour shifts far from the
battlefield, hunting terrorists by day and being a wife and mother
by night. A tour de force play for one actress, Grounded flies from
the heights of lyricism to the shallows of workaday existence,
targeting our assumptions about war, family, and the power of
storytelling. Grounded was the winner of the 2012 Smith Prize.
