| Description |
"Buses ricochet, trams vanish, cities grow up and so does the relationship of Theo and Ivy. While the couple huddle in their shelter waiting for the trams and then the buses that promise another future, two derelicts with a healthy sense of humour and a taste for impromptu vaudeville comment on events and relationships past, present and future." |
