'You're not a saint. Saints don't exist. You're just a woman doing her best.'
Mark arrives in a village in India to try and find his wife. He doesn't understand what has driven her to abandon her young son. Jane cannot explain why she needed to escape or how she ended up looking after children in India - or what is in the bag she's been holding on to. It is hot, dusty and poor, and a long way from their comfortable life in London.
Helen Edmundson's playĀ Mother Teresa is DeadĀ was first performed at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in June 2002.
