Aldo is tied up in a basement and has no idea why. Prue Cunningham gives her client Mrs Maxwell dubious family law advice. Henry has dropped out of law school, and his mother has disowned him. He’s now dealing drugs to Sydney’s elite, but his girlfriend wants a better life. His bikie supplier wants a pound of flesh, and his junky customers have no boundaries.
Come find out how these three stories are connected in this dark comedy about divorce, family, and the need to be loved.
“Dark comedy is the most difficult genre to direct. One has to juggle that fine line between playing the comedy or playing the drama without slipping into slapstick or melodrama. This play has been no exception. Ian’s tight comic writing and wonderful cast will make you laugh out loud while gritting your teeth – at times not knowing whether to laugh or cry.” Ruth Finget, Director.
