Don’t Call Me Home is straight up, heart wrenching and funny. Alex is the daughter of a Warhol superstar, they live at the Chelsea hotel and her family are lovable and understandable. This is the story of a solo mum coming to terms with trauma and creating her daughter’s trauma along the way. There’s a lot of grimey New York, grimey sleeze men, grimey squats etc but it’s interspersed with an 2023 perspective and patience for fraught relationships and situations.
