    May 1988.
    Robin Hesketh, a junior minister in Margaret Thatcher’s Government, comes home to his idyllic Cotswold residence two days after passing the notorious Section 28 that prohibited the “promotion of homosexuality” by Local Authorities.

    But life is not as blissful as it seems.
    The foxes have dug up his garden, his wife has a hangover and the fridge is empty.

    A morning of comical marital sparring evolves into something darker and deeper as an incident from the past tests their relationship to its limits.

    This funny, brutal and ultimately touching play was premiered at the National Theatre in 2019.
    In an Election Year there could not be a better time for its revival.

    Advisory Age 14+. Explores themes of sexuality and suicide.

    This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd.

    Doors Open and Licensed Bar from 7.00pm. Show starts at 7.30pm
