This short play was selected for the One Act Play Festival at the Stockwell Playhouse in south London, with a single performance on 17 June as the last of three plays on the first night of the festival. The play received an immediate and positive adjudication from Paul Vale at “The Stage” whose written review is below.

The script was previously long-listed for the British Theatre Challenge.

Thanks to Freckle Productions, Evy Barry, Mandy Steele, and MSFT Management for their help and wisdom in getting this project on its legs.
