By Geraldine Aron
A deliciously entertaining exploration of divorce, dating and the search for love.
The hilarious but poignant story of Angela, who recently deserted by her accountant husband for a younger woman, finds herself adrift in a sea of weird sexual encounters, sneaky solicitors, a disapproving mother, phone-in counsellors, a bad case of hypochondria and the spectre of poverty! Should she fight to keep her husband? Or should she sign the final papers and move on?

Under Garry Hynes’ direction, French’s comedic skills are employed to lift the piece and lead it to a real and quite memorable ‘smiling through the tears’ bittersweetness
