The Milk of Human Kindness

The Milk of Human Kindness by Ian Wild. The Milk of Human Kindness is a romantic comedy. Set in London in the 1980's the play brings together the Haves and the Have-Nots in an orgy of violence, overeating and extreme kindness. Featuring vindictive Vicars, a woman who distils poteen in a toilet and Queen Victoria as a blighted potato, the play is an indictment of people with hearts like dried peas and pound signs in their eyes. It is a play to refresh even the most jaded theatrical palate.
