REVIEWS:
"This bittersweet quick-change comedy is streaked with pathos and is effortlessly charming, with each character sketched with verve and skill."
Sydney Morning Herald
"Quilter's understanding of human desires and quirks is on show and probed so endearingly... A warm and funny exploration of love and other bruises."
Daily Telegraph
"Compelling, dense, funny and varied... The language is always beautifully rendered, character-specific, and emotionally satisfying... a play to be treasured!"

Shelley and Bobby are getting divorced, but that hasn't stopped them from going on a final holiday together in Spain. Despite their best intentions to keep things civilized, Shelley gets drunk and flirtatious on cocktails and Bobby threatens to fly home early. Eventually, nostalgia for the happy times they had together wins through, and they agree to end the holiday -- and the marriage -- amicably. |
