Synopsis

This poignant play by the author of Tell Me Another Story, Sing Me a Song; A Little Something for the Ducks; A Scent of Honeysuckle and A Bag of Green Apples is the story of two women, Margaret and Jessie, who have come to Jessie's childhood home to put it up for sale.

While Margaret goes to find a real estate agent, Jessie has conversations with herself as a girl and with her dead father and her mother.

Press Reviews

"A warmly human play. One is left with a sense that although choices made in life are not made without loss, that which is lost can in some ways be recaptured."

— Pentagram

"Delightful."
