A powerful two-hander about betrayal.
He has nowhere else to go.
She has a kind heart.
He has filled his days with memories of their past. She has tried to move on.
They have not seen each other in a long time.
Tonight he has returned. Suddenly the past doesn’t feel all that long ago.
Written in response to Arthur Miller’s A View from the Bridge.
Patron Warning: This performance contains coarse language and reference to sexually abusive relationships.
