Michele increasingly hides away upstairs, as Clara weaves her conspiracies beneath.Clara's Daughter begins in terraced houses and city parks of North London but develops, through sharp-edged monologues and surreal visions, into a primeval stand-off between mother and daughter. Eventually, Clara - the controlling matriarch - finds a way to release her daughter. But can Michele release herself?Meike Ziervogel is a master of suspenseful storytelling.
