Created, written by, starring and Executive Produced by Sophie Willan, Alma’s Not Normal centres on Boltonian wild-child, Alma Nuthall and her family of eccentric, unruly women. Offering a bitingly funny and unflinching take on class, sexuality, mental health and substance abuse, the story celebrates women dealing with the hands they’ve been dealt while doggedly pursing their dreams
“Willan’s writing is skilled and clearly very personal…uplifting and strangely enchanting.”
