‘Mad’ Mary McArdle returns home after a short spell in prison to find everything and everyone has changed. Her best friend, Charlene, is getting married and Mary is maid of honor. When Carlene refuses Mary a “plus one” because she thinks Mary couldn’t find a date ... Mary becomes determined to prove her wrong. But her attempts at dating are a disaster and she feels more alone until she meets Jess and everything changes. A Date For Mad Mary is a nuanced drama with moments of wry laugh-out-loud comedy and endearing characters.
