Description

On a spring morning in London, eight women, young and old, speak for the continuity of everyday life. Over five choruses, these ordinary inhabitants of the city reveal a world that has an intensity and depth of emotion that make it transcendent and universal.

A witty and ironic portrait, As Good a Time As Any by Peter Gill premiered at the Print Room, London, in April 2015.
