Three siblings, a girl and two boys, endlessly reiterate the terrible details of their childhood. They are trapped for ever in an obsessive need to remember and relive their treatment at the hands of a sadistic father who brutalised not only the three children but also his ever-uncomplaining wife - who herself eventually succumbed to the drink. A tragi-comic play about children at play, loss, retribution and acceptance in a wonderland where white rabbits would never venture.
