Synopsis
A stunning new play published to tie in with the London premiere at Wyndham's Theatre When Kemp receives a phone call from an aunt who claims she is "old and dying", he travels across the country to pay her a visit; but she's not going just yet. As the seasons change and the weather turns from bad to good again, Kemp's own dysfunctional youth and thwarted dreams come to light in a delightful and mordant black comedy. "Think of an extended Tony Hancock sketch rewritten by Samuel Beckett and you will have something of the flavour of these ninety minutes that so brilliantly use comedy to expose the pain and loneliness of the unloved. It is funny, tender and quite tough" GuardianA tart, tough comedy The Times "A touching portrait of two lonely souls and the need that binds them together" Daily Telegraph "A tender, funny little play" Daily Mail "A wonderfully black, funny, sad piece" Scotsman
