The A Word
A play about the hidden scars of an abusive relationship between two women and the friends who begin to notice the cracks.

Written & Directed by bestselling author, filmmaker and playwright Jade Winters.
Brooke’s friends can tell something’s off — they just don’t know what.
One night out, one too many questions, and the cracks start to show. What begins as laughter and casual catch-ups slowly shifts into something far more uncomfortable.
The A Word is a raw, intimate drama about emotional abuse in a lesbian relationship — and the friends determined to reach someone who’s slipping away. Told through present-day conversations and fractured memories, it explores denial, control, and the silence that thrives behind closed doors. A story of loyalty, survival, and the quiet courage it takes to finally speak the truth.
