Unlike other New Zealand works that have recently appeared on a London stage, April Phillips’ Stiff requires no translation. As the 43-year-old writer from Wellington reflects, she has had a British audience in mind since she first penned the play in 1995.

Stiff centres around a group of working girls taking over a funeral parlour. It was first performed at Hamilton’s Playbox Theatre in 2004, a year after the passing of the Prostitution Reform Bill. “There was a bit of controversy at the time about the bylaws so it was topical,” recalls Phillips. “They used a black hearse in their publicity which one of the town’s massage parlours used in their publicity.”

Phillips’ British break happened after New Zealand playwriting agency Playmarket contacted several London theatres. Questors requested the Stiff script before inviting Philips over in 2007 to see their Christmas production of Great Expectations. “By the time I got there, they had already decided to put it on,”says Phillips.
