Why do people ever see things through Why do they ever stay Its so hard. Every relationship reaches a crossroad some time. As dawn breaks, Maggie is heating some milk and Gary wonders what shes doing out of bed. Maybe its time for an honest conversation but how much honesty can this marriage take Following his five-star play Beginning, which played sold-out runs at the National Theatre and in the West End, writer David Eldridge brings his raw, touching and funny style to a portrait of a 21st century marriage, the second of three plays to explore love and relationships.
Quite simply, magnificent. * Evening Standard (on Beginning) *
Wry, funny and touching. * The Independent (on Beginning) *
