A month after the death of her big brother, Laura’s parents buy her a pet tiger. They never explain the tiger and won't discuss her brother. Not ever. Now that she’s having to learn to live with a dangerous animal every step becomes a tiptoe, every word becomes a whisper, and things are starting to spiral out of control. An extract from the forthcoming play I Am Tiger from writer Olly Emanuel, directed by Lu Kemp and starring Ava Hickey. Produced in association with Imaginate.
