Who Cares Now?
Isabel Flynn, Alice Brown-Tunnell, Amy Fawcet
March 2020 happens and Izzy is back on the job hunt. After navigating the dramas of temporary jobs at Amazon and Dominos, she eventually settles in a job working in domiciliary care. In keeping with her oblivious nature, she’s surprised to find out it’s a bit more than wiping bums and making your Nan a cup of tea in the morning.
From discussing the quality of the male anatomy on Naked Attraction with her favourite client, 89-year-old Joan, to holding someone’s hand through their Dad’s last moments, join Izzy in her chaotic confessional of working in care over the last year.
Told through a mix of stand-up, visual storytelling, and lairy voice notes sent to her housemates during breaks, this explosion of energy is for anybody who has lost a job, found a job, or cares about the vulnerable people in their life.
