| Description |
A new production to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the first production by the Griffin Theatre company in January 1986.
It's Christmas 1967 and following an end-of-school performance of "A Midsummer Night's Dream", three families depart for their beach holidays, but their apparent seasonal cheer masks deeper concerns.
Immigrants Harry and Vic love their adopted country, but are faced with their son Tom's terminal illness. Jim and Gwen fret over their daughter Meg's blossoming independence and her friendship with the socially unsuitable Tom. Roy is unable to console a grief stricken Cora |
