The first play from Kevin Elyot, the writer of My Night with Reg. A tie-in publication alongside the 35th anniversary production of this sexy, funny, moving landmark drama that questions the nature of fidelity and the limits of love.
Kevin Elyot's evocative final play. A heartbreakingly funny tale of fathers and sons, desire and regret, and lives half lived. From the writer of My Night With Reg.
A landmark, award-winning play, which received a high-profile revival in 2014, just months after the playwright's death.
Frank is a forty-something failed writer. He is in the grips of an undeclared passion for his best friend’s 17-year-old son, whom he has saved from drowning with mouth to mouth resuscitation. After Frank makes a bungled attempt to confess his feelings, the boy is killed in a motorbike accident. Yet all of this in buried in a social comedy in the hands of Elyot, a past master at employing the grim reaper to sharpen his hilarity.
