Ozzy Algar: Speed Queen

We are in the Speed Queen, the last launderette on the Isle of Wight.

Here, Pet, an ancient washerwoman, divines the fates of her customers through their dirty laundry, and a story unfolds of an island ill-at-ease.

Part folklore, part pitch-black comedy, Speed Queen is a hauntingly funny debut that blends the Isle of Wight’s untold myths and hidden histories with folk horror, original music, and razor-sharp character work in this double Comedian’s Choice award-nominated, ‘gorgeously evocative, otherworldly debut hour from a rising star’ (Reviews Hub).
